    Family Tradition!

    My father used to take us to Portillos when we visited Chicago as teens. My brothers and I live across the country so for Christmas he started shipping us the Italian Beef Kits. It became a Christmas tradition. Now that he's passed, we've carried on the tradition. I order kits for Thanksgiving Eve and Christmas Eve. My kids can't wait for Portillos and look forward to it every year. It's a Lineberry thing!

    I sent this to my dad and he absolutely loved it! He was born and raised in Chicago and loves his food. I have ordered other foods from Taste of Chicago, and the food is always delicious.

    A taste of home

    Sent 2 Italian Beef kits to former Chicago residents. They were excited to get real beef outside of Chicago.
