The Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) today held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of Butcher & The Burger in O'Hare International Airport's Terminal 5.

"I'm proud to welcome another Chicago institution to our world-class concessions program in O'Hare's modernized Terminal 5," said CDA Commissioner Jamie L. Rhee. "By bringing in diverse local businesses to the airports, we are investing in Chicago's communities while offering travelers from all over the world a taste of what our city has to offer. "

Butcher & The Burger's original Lincoln Park location - part old-fashioned butcher shop and part fast-casual burger joint - has been a Chicago favorite since 2011.
