A Surprising Breakfast Deal at MDW
As we surveyed the food court at MDW, we were resigned as usual to over-pay for our morning repast. We considered finishing up our Chicago Food Trifecta with the Italian Beef, or another hideous rendition of the bagel breakfast sandwich when we ran across Illinois Bar and Grill tucked into the corner of the food court.
Unlike it's neighbors, which are your standard counter walk up, it has actual walls which house 3 booths and a bar. The most surprising part was that it offers up the same menu as its out of airport location, without your standard airport markup. A 5 egg omelet for $6! A breakfast sandwich for $3! We both ended up ordering the breakfast sandwich, adding cheese and a generous portion of bacon.
Bacon, Egg and Cheese $6
We mistakenly ordered the sandwich on a "bun", which we thought was going to be a toasted roll, but which was, in fact, a regular hamburger bun. However, this enormous sandwich was filling and was certainly a good deal.
