\nAs most meat enthusiasts probably know, \u201cboeuf\u201d is French for beef. Make no mistake about it, Bavette\u2019s Bar & Boeuf has dutifully earned the right to their name. You\u2019ll get one of the best cuts of steak in a dimly-lit, retro environment, making your meal feel worth every penny spent. And when you\u2019re in the mood for a little surf with your turf, the Alaskan king crab legs here are rave-worthy.<\/p>\n

\nCaf\u00e9 Orient 33 is an awesome little Asian fusion restaurant in Albany Park that never skimps on flavor. The bulgolgi is thin and cooked just enough and served with sauces and spices kicking it up in high gear. The fried chicken is the gem of the menu, though. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated in a delicious sauce that redefines everything you know about finger lickin\u2019 goodness.<\/p>\n

\nBig & Little\u2019s has a little something of everything: beef and lamb gyros, pork and short rib tacos, pork belly po’boy sandwiches and much more. But the burgers here are so good, they deserve a menu of their own. Along with a side of truffle fries, you\u2019ll love the food here so much, you\u2019ll be planning many trips back to be able to try it all.<\/p>\n

\nYou might have it in your head that Japanese cuisine is light on the meat and heavy on the veggies. Well, it is heavy on the veggies. But at Gyu Kaku, it\u2019s heavy on the meat, too. And it\u2019s some taste bud-melting meat, at that. Beef bacon, KalBi, pork, skirt, and more, grilled exactly how you want it at the table.<\/p>\n

\nNot all paninis are created equal. When you\u2019re looking for the lightness that a panini provides but want the sustenance of a burger, come to the Panini Republic and order the Meat Lovers panini. Packed full of meats and flavor on their signature bread, you\u2019ll never think of a sandwich as being a light lunch ever again.<\/p>\n

\nThey say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so don\u2019t waste it with a bunch of sugar. At The Original Pancake House, order the Meat Lovers breakfast for a plate full of eggs of your choice, sausage links, and everyone\u2019s favorite breakfast meat: bacon. The skillets are also a popular choice here, bringing a savory side to your favorite breakfast. Try to get here early if you\u2019re coming on the weekends, though, as you\u2019re definitely not the only one who wants to start their day off on a delicious foot.<\/p>\n
