A recent trip to Chicago at the end of 2016 provided a wealth of information about three schools: University of Chicago, Loyola University Chicago, and DePaul University. I also found out who has the best food trucks! In a word, Porky Fries.
There is a new trend at some universities – supplementing food services with food trucks on campus. The University of Chicago takes this to an admirable level. Fifteen food trucks, representing every type of food you can imagine were represented between two locations on campus. I decided to take one for the team and try… two. If you tour the University of Chicago campus during lunch, you should try Lucy’s “Porky Fries” – smoked, pulled pork on hand cut fries with BBQ sauce on the side, next to sweet hot peppers. A short walk and then a nap should follow immediately.
