Chicago ribs @ autocity

It was my 34th and we drove all the way across the bridge to go eat ribs. I’ve heard a lot about it and I especially wanted to go there since they serve pork ribs. You can hardly find good pork ribs on the island anymore. The last good ribs I had was in LA :-P The restaurant is hidden from view but it basically behind the mcD@autocity. We got there around noon and we were the 1st customers of the day. Soon after the lunch people started trickling in. Elpea ordered the lunch set, of ½ rack of babyback ribs with fries and slaw, mix veg soup and coke. I ordered the St Louis pork ribs, full rack, hot and spicy flavor, and for drinks I took the iced lemon tea. ( Next time, I go back I’ll be sure to try the original flavor ribs. ) I also ordered additional potato skins for starters. 1st to arrive were the drinks in 2 humongous glasses. Larger that what we normally see in crappy TGIF or Chili’s on the island. iced-lemon tea for me and coke for my lovely wife

Next came the potato skins Not as thick as TGIF’s but taste much much nicer. .

Elpeas mix veg soup came next. I don’t think there has been any soup from any restaurant that has met our standards. Every thing taste like it "fresh" from the can. elpea say so-so only.Then the main courses came.

Elpeas babyback ribs look really good The fries were very nice as well. the coleslaw was so-so only she said. the PORK ribs i ordered however looked super huge and elpea was laughing at me as it looked too huge for even ME to finish.

Don’t underestimate me dear… The meat on the ribs were very tender and it just peels away from the bone. succulent... :-) Taste wise it's better than what I had previously on the island. The hot and spicy flavour was very mild actually. not spicy also.

the Mash potato was excellent. not too soft and not too dry. Just nice. The broccoli tastes well, like broccoli but was suprising quite nice. I managed to finish the whole rack and ¾ of the mash potato but couldn’t finish the broccoli and no more space for dessert. :-( Overall 8.5/10 , good food and fast service
