You Decide: Who Fries Up the Best Onion Rings in Oak Lawn

Help us decide who serves up the best onion rings or bloomin' onion in the Oak Lawn area.

It’s time for another Chowdown Showdown, our popular weekly feature that will not only give you great ideas on where to eat, but gives you the chance to rave about your favorite places in town. 

The Chowdown Showdown has two components. The first is when we call on you, our brutally honest readers, and gather votes for the best representative from Oak Lawn.

After we declare a Palos winner, we have a taste test where Palos, Evergreen Park and Oak Lawn restaurants are pitted against each other and each town's editor weighs in on who makes a particular dish best.

It's all in good fun.

Before the competition starts, we need your ideas on who our Oak Lawn representative should be.

This week's showdown will celebrate that glorious fried concoction - fried onions. We want to know who makes the best onion rings or blooming onion in town. If it is breaded, fried and has an onion in between it's fair game. Let us know if you have a special dipping sauce that we should try with it too.

There are three ways to vote for your favorite.
