The Original Maxwell Street Station

67th and Cicero

This place is pretty nice, just south of Midway Airport. I was at work at 63rd and Cicero and was going to drive to 79th and Harlem which I thought was the closest one; until I drove by here, and pulled a quick u-turn.

It was espcially good because I had eaten at 2 wack Maxwells in the previous days (31st and Canal and 76th and Ashland (that wasnt that wack)), and this one is one of the 'Big 4' originals like 79th and Harlem. The pork chop was extra greasy and the cheese cup was in full effect. My fries were so fresh they tasted like straight up oil, which wasn't that good, but was good because I knew it meant they were real fresh (they were burning hot too!!).
