[SAISON FUCK]

Not that this is talkpizza but did you get into spacca a few weeks ago when they had the visiting 3rd generation pizzaiulo from Italy? He made a carnivale pizza his grandfather invented which was star shaped with ricotta filled points. It made me weep

Nothing I like more than some hipster crying in a pizza joint.

Nope, sounds sweet though. That place is the truth.

Oh if this is the FIB Food Thoughts thread, this kickass Asian "Chipotle style" place opened across from my office. Beat the Asian Chipotle we are getting by like 3 months. I could eat there almost every day and be happy with life choices. BrightWok Kitchen at Adams and Wabash if you are in the area.

Well, ****, this looks intriguing. I'm at Adams and Wells; I may need to get lunch or dinner there soon.

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I know Monroe and Wabash well enough (frequent visitor to Naf Naf) but I'll make the one-block trek to check this place out!

****, us Loop denizens should do a liquid lunch at some point. I'm at Adams and Dearborn.

Thanks for the tip. Might have to hit this up next week.

EDIT: Monroe and Dearborn checking in.

 

[trickytunadicky]

We should do a meet up at Millers or something. jakeox is in my building.

You know what's surprising? The beef is less fat/cholesterol/calories, etc - and yet, the beef tends to be so bland. Amd those hot sauces are screaming with high sodium! So, yeah! -- ya know?!

How about Au Cheval or Haymarket? (500 W. Madison here)

How about Au Cheval or Haymarket? (500 W. Madison here)

I'd like to go to Au Cheval, but every time I've tried it's been at least a 2.5 hour wait (next attempt will be #4). Need to go after work, put in for a single, and drink heavily at Haymarket while waiting.

 

[trickytunadicky]

What he said. Not waiting for that when I got BA on the way home. Would toy Haymarket, though.

 

[ClCardinal84]

Jackson & LaSalle here! Let's do it

[Thorpe]

I'd be down for this as well. I'm close enough at LaSalle and Kinzie.

 

[trickytunadicky]

So I can't actually do a liquid lunch (silly working with power plants) but I can tick a reuben at lunch.

Not that up close, but that is what drives the rules.

Back to talking about beer, has anyone have the recent batch of War bird? It tastes like that pop "squirt" Straight grapefruit bomb super easy drinking and only 7.99 4pk of tallboys too...nice work CansIn2022

Speaking of late to the party... Madison and Dearborn here. Liquid lunch sounds awesome.

Diehl and Naperville. No?

Thanks for the heads up. I'm at Wacker & Wabash as of last week, will need to go check this out. So far I've been hitting Pastoral and Oasis Cafe (and Chick-fil-A once).

I've been meaning to hit up Pastoral. Worth it?

 

[ChicagoGuy]

Definitely worth at least one visit. On the pricey side ($8-13 for a sandwich), but the baguettes are perfect, ingredients are high quality, and they don't skimp on the meats & cheeses. Just avoid going during the 11:45-12:30 lunch rush or you'll be standing in line for 20 minutes. At 1pm on Wednesday, I walked right up to the register, put in my order, and was out the door with my sandwich in 10 minutes.

That's a pretty good duo. You could do A LOT worse. Oasis is a nice hidden spot.

This pretty much goes for anything "good" in the Loop.

If you're around that area again, you need to hit Heaven on 7 nearby as well, if you haven't been before.
