White Castle: No hassles at this castle

Always Open... Always Tasty!

In a time when America's 'fast food' mega-franchises are shying away from their 'beefy' roots (and offering items like "Premium Salads"), this chain has remained true to its (greasy) origins. Here you can still find the venerable "Slider" - a small square-shaped hamburger - smothered in fresh-grilled onions!
"Sliders" are legendary for their mystical curative properties (by people who have spent the entire night consuming excessive quantities of alcoholic beverages ;-) Many former residents of "da Sout Side ah Chicagah," (where White Castles were originally most concentrated here) would admit an attraction to them much like hogs to truffles (termed: "The CRAVE" ;-) The 'fries' are better than most, too.
As evident in the picture, popularity is increasing among affluent suburbanites, seen here circling in their SUVs like hungry sharks.

Favorite Dish: Combo #2: Two (little) Double-Cheesburgers, fries, and a medium drink. Newer entrees include "Jalopeno-Burgers" and "Chicken Rings."

DuPage Theatre

The DuPage Theatre - a local landmark. I thought the intention was to preserve it, but the little animated GIFs of bulldozers on the website seems cause for confusion (?)

Zabawa dla calej rodziny.

The Enchanted Castle - a Family Entertainment Center ("FEC") - is purported to be the oldest establishment of its kind in the world (still operating under its original name). Geared towards provding a variety of indoor attractions for children and teenagers, it offers arcade games, laser tag, bumper-cars, and that perennial international favorite: "miniaturowy golfowy," as well as 'modern technology' entertainment. They also have a restaurant where the 'grown-ups' can sit it out. ;-)
