Watch Stephen Colbert Talk Italian Beef With Chicago Actor Michael Peña

— Actor and Chicago native Michael Peña talked Chicago food on Thursday night on Late Night With Stephen Colbert. Colbert and Peña chatted about their experiences in the city, but it appears Peña has a shrinking memory. Peña, who appeared in Ant-Man and the Wasp, repeatedly referenced “Gold Coast Italian Beef,” a restaurant that doesn’t exist. Perhaps he meant Gold Coast Dogs which serves Italian beef. Regardless, Peña said he ate an Italian beef on Wednesday: “I had it hot, which, by the way, you should not do that when you’re taking a long flight.” Colbert dropped a D’Amato’s Bakery reference, mentioning the West Town Italian bakery’s famous bread. Colbert also talked Mr. Beef (presumably Mr. Beef on Orleans, not the Homer Glen location): “I like Mr. Beef because I’d go sweet peppers and wet. Because you go hot or sweet peppers and wet ‘cause it gets the whole thing — you can really shove it down your mouth. You literally dip the whole bun in the jus. Eat it faster than the Japanese guy [Takeru Kobayashi] at the Nathan’s [hot dog] contest.” Check out the whole clip here.
