It’s time for another Chowdown Showdown, our weekly feature that will not only give you great ideas on where to eat, but will allow you to tell everyone why your favorite spot is the best. 

The Chowdown Showdown pits Palos, Evergreen Park and Oak Lawn restaurants against each other to decide who makes a particular dish best. Before the competition starts, we need your ideas on who our Palos representative should be.

This week's showdown is a bit more open-ended. We are looking for the best pastry in town. Does a certain bakery serve up some top quality doughnuts? Is there an independent grocery store that makes a mean cinnamon roll? How about kolacky or Danish? The winner then will go on to face the best of Oak Lawn and Evergreen.
