Growing up in Chicagoland, these sandwiches are just what I remember. They are delicious.
My only criticism would be the method of shipping that Portilloās chooses to use. This is the second time that I have placed an on-line order to be shipped to me and the shipping was delayed, causing some thawing of the items in the shipment. Both times, FedEx notified me that the package should arrive between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. and in both cases it arrived late. Because I had such a poor experience with the first incident (the package arrived 3+ hours late causing it to thaw and leak), this time I watched the clock closely and contacted FedEx just moments after the end of the delivery window to find out where my packages were. My packages did arrive within 20 minutes of my contacting FedEx this time around. I donāt understand FedExās actions since these boxes are clearly marked as perishable.
