The award-winning, skillet-baked mac and cheese at AMK is worth every calorie. Cloaked in a melty, jalapeno and bacon-stippled mix of havarti, fontina, provolone, Asiago and Gouda, it’s topped with more cheese and showered with breadcrumbs. “Perfection” is the first word that comes to mind.
AMK is at 1954 W. Armitage Ave.
Mindy’s Hot Chocolate
Featuring a lush mix of Gruyère, American and cheddar cheeses, Hot Chocolate serves an impressive rendition that’s so saucy you’d benefit from a spoon. Use yours to break open the crackly, browned top and scoop up the molten goodness within. Then, and ask for some bread to sop up the remains.
Mindy’s Hot Chocolate is at 1747 N. Damen Ave.

For an especially decadent version of mac and cheese, head to elegant Maple & Ash. Served in a cast-iron dish, the noodles are swathed in a blend of Gruyère, mascarpone, raclette and comté, all tied together with creamy béchamel, nuggets of salty bacon and a breadcrumb topping.
Maple & Ash is at 8 W. Maple St.
YESSSSSS!!!!
