It's been a long time coming, but Lollapalooza is finally upon us. And the annual four-day music festival has already transformed Chicago's Grant Park into a veritable mass of denim cutoffs, flash tats, and fringe. In addition to the impressive lineup (Radiohead, Ellie Goulding, and LCD Soundsystem will all be taking the stage), we can't stop ogling over the insanely delicious food offerings on-site, curated by newly-minted Top Chef judge Graham Elliot. From artisan hotdogs to the requisite slice of deep dish pizza, here are the five dishes (of the whopping 35 options) we're really salivating over.

It wouldn't be a trip to Chi-Town without indulging in a slice of deep dish pizza. With its thin flaky crust, vine-ripened tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and a special sausage blend, Lou Malnati's is a top-tier pick.

Feast your eyes on this towering cone of rainbow goodness, topped with hefty scoops of chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House (translation: vanilla with cherry and walnuts), pistachio, and orange sherbet. Then Instagram it, of course.

These creative riffs on hotdogs, packed in buttery lobster rolls and loaded with everything from fried Brussels sprouts to truffle mac 'n' cheese, are a far cry from your average Chicago-style frank.
