This week on Dining on a Dime, host Lucas Peterson goes to Pilsen, a primarily Mexican neighborhood on the lower west side of Chicago, to visit The Jibarito Stop, a food-truck-turned-restaurant that serves fantastic jibaritos. Using tostones, or fried plantains, in place of bread, the jibarito is crunchy, sweet, and in the running to become Peterson’s favorite sandwich.  For more episodes of Dining on a Dime, click here:
