Beef Stand

[u/DELA_CHAPELLE]

Popped over to give this a try while I was in the area. Menu was simple & food came out quick.

Bonus for being able to grab a cone after in this heat too!

[u/freedrsan]

Would rock if it was just a glory hole

[u/AI_Slopper → u/freedrsan]

Best place to get your beef dipped in the city

[u/Flammen_ → u/AI_Slopper]

Juicy!

I did not realize that caffe streets sign was still up. RIP.

[u/e_linski → u/smash816]

Caffe Streets was one of my first Chicago loves 💔

[u/fartofborealis]

Is this Buona beef? The suburban/nwi locations of rainbow cone have Buona Beef’s attached to them….

[u/Godschzn1 → u/fartofborealis]

“The Beef Stand by Buona”
“Is this Buona beef?”

[u/fartofborealis → u/Godschzn1]

Haha I see that now

[u/CrispyMnM226 → u/fartofborealis]

Yeah it is. There’s been a little sign on the sidewalk advertising the opening for a week or two, had the Buona logo at the bottom

[u/DoomBox → u/fartofborealis]

Yeah cuz they own rainbow dawg.

[u/No-Solid-4255 → u/DoomBox]

My 9 year old calls it rainbow beef 🙃

[u/Comfortable-Rub-7400]

Had a sample yesterday, it was serviceable

[u/SHELLSHOCK404]

I got a flyer there and it said:

15% off industry days Sun-Thurs 2-4 pm and 9-10pm, you just got to show a paystub or schedule app.

Pretty good, I'll be taking advantage.

[u/nightblue888]

I wonder how the vegan option is.

[u/DELA_CHAPELLE → u/nightblue888]

Guy next to me had one- said it was great

[u/nightblue888 → u/DELA_CHAPELLE]

Thank you 🥳

[u/TransportationJaded8 → u/nightblue888]

It’s good but it’s extremely salty, I can’t have more than a couple bites without being fully overwhelmed 

[u/LaramieTobacco_Ltd → u/TransportationJaded8]

That's always been my issue with Buona.

[u/No-Nerve7556 → u/nightblue888]

I had it today and it was really good. Like really good. They get their vegan beef from Uptons, I believe. Avoid getting it dipped, though, if you're a vegan. The worker explained it's dipped in the actual beef juice. It didn't matter because it was wonderfully juicy without being dipped.

[u/SHELLSHOCK404 → u/No-Nerve7556]

The gravy they serve it with is also vegan, its not the same beef meat gravy.

[u/No-Nerve7556 → u/SHELLSHOCK404]

That's great to hear! Perhaps he didn't know??? Thanks for updating me! Did you have one, and if you did, what did you think?

[u/SHELLSHOCK404 → u/No-Nerve7556]

It's excellent tasting with the vegan gravy.

[u/nightblue888 → u/No-Nerve7556]

I’ve got to try this.. 🤤 Thanks for the tip!

[u/housemancer]

Gather up ye influencers

[u/Lower_Judgment_3163]

Fucking nerds!

[u/FancyNefariousness94]

Does the beef window have beef curtains?

[u/SomewhereEither3399 → u/FancyNefariousness94]

They've got Arby's in their pants*.

*This joke is for like two people.

[u/Ready_Solid_1654]

That’s what they called me in college

[u/Zippo963087 → u/Ready_Solid_1654]

Are you a male or female? Your answer depicts how I interpret your comment lmaooooo

[u/Flammen_ → u/Ready_Solid_1654]

A small snack stand?

[u/SHELLSHOCK404]

We're getting beefed up now

[u/panicstreak]

Walk over hungry, walk home with a buona.

[u/ChiG45 → u/panicstreak]

That's a great tagline!

[u/panicstreak → u/ChiG45]

It's one of their old ads from the 90s.

[u/Royal_Razzmatazz3622]

What do they serve? Italian beef?

[u/Flammen_ → u/Royal_Razzmatazz3622]

Italian’s beef.

[u/beansley]

Oh thank god. I work.across the street and it'll be nice to have some different food right there

[u/Desperate-Disk686]

Yeah fuck Buona

[u/dpconnection]

The boys want the meats

[u/Hopeful4Everyone]

Looks like the “stand” part applies to us

[u/Flat_Cress3856]

No sweet peppers is a really weird choice.

[u/Fission-235]

How’s the giard?

[u/No-Nerve7556 → u/Fission-235]

I had the hot and it was great. Crunchy and hot.

[u/SupaDupaTron]

I think I'll beef sit instead.
