    About Edzo’s and Eddie

    Eddie’s a culinary school graduate and a veteran Chicago line cook.  After working in Barcelona, Bologna, and way too many fine-dining kitchens, he decided to try and create a situation where he could carve out a living and still make it home by 6:00 so he could eat dinner with his family every night.

    The Burgers

    We use only American beef– USDA choice chuck.  Never frozen.  Ground fresh every morning in the back.  Nothing’s added to it until we shake some salt and pepper onto the meat as it cooks.  That’s it.

    The Shakes

    Nothin’ fancy here.  Vanilla ice cream, hand-dipped, blended with flavors and milk on an old-fashioned Multimixer spindle machine.  These old machines blend more slowly than modern blenders, which yields a smoother, creamier finished product, due to less air being whipped in.

    The Fries

    Hand-cut, twice-cooked potatoes.  Have’em straight up or try something different like Buffalo Fries, Loaded Fries, or White Truffle Fries.
