We all know ballpark food is the best food, which is why we're not surprised by all of the tantalizing new dishes coming to the Friendly Confines this year. The Chicago Cubs will unveil a new home-game menu during the April 10 home opener. And if brown sugar-coated bacon bites or a chicken sandwich on toasted Hawaiian bread get your mouth watering, you're going to love all the other options at Wrigley Field this season. Don't believe us? Take a look for yourself.

Hawaiian bread makes everything better, especially when that everything is a grilled chicken breast topped with sweet chili glaze, Asian slaw and sautéed pineapple. Pro tip: Billy Sunday's craft cocktails, which are now available at the Sheffield Counter and in the Budweiser Bleachers, would pair perfectly with this cutie. (Available at the Sheffield Counter)
