FIB War Room

[Ferowcious]

Just one. Everyone else was in and out by 4. Maybe 30 total people showed up.

It went great honestly. People were super respectful and kind "Oh wow! I'll grab this" "Damn i wanted to try that!" "OH, well, here you go, i've had it before"

And over $400 was raised for Hope For The Day.

I'm glad people were well behaved. I was a bit worried after you broadcast your invitation to a group of 2300 people and used the word "variants"

vav - the hope for the day folks are f*ckin salt of the earth. such a huge problem that gets neglected because drug companies have the solutions for the number one killer of young folks. the flying spagetti monster told me that upon your death you will have unending pasta & breadsticks.

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.

Confirmed this place is delicious.
ChicagoNick and I took a buddy here for lunch today.
Thanks for the rec trickytunadicky!

It was a last minute type of deal and immediately thought of your post.
I'm definitely down for an after work meet up though! Is this still going down this week or next week?

Millers sounds good. They have MO on tap, so i'd be happy.

In. We can meet in the bar area by the window. I kind of remember what you look like. If we want to get a table and eat, the food there is solid, too.

 

[SSTroller]

I'm def in for tomorrow at Millers. Always happy with their list.

My only complaint: they didn't have any A/C on today. It was hot as balls in there. But the food is very good! Had chile coconut curry with beef. The beef was perfect. Not fatty, chewy, or overcooked like most places.

I can't get enough creamy cashew. Ticked it on beef and chicken so far.

So what time we thinking for this. I can probably get out around 5:30, maybe earlier.

I could make it between 5:15 and 5:30.
Any other "Loopers" joining us?

I can be walking in the door between 4:45 and 5 since I literally work across Wabash.

I would invite myself, but I'm working from home today. Enjoy, all!

We are getting together today...

 

[middlebrow]

is this the FIB lunch room?

 

[Tooch4321]

Either way, I am not available. You all have fun now, I might also suggesting the Game Room at Chicago Athletic next time...

I might be able to stick my head in the door and wave at exactly 5pm, but unfortunately that's it for me for today. I can usually make this work though.

 

[mdomask]

Gah, working from home today. Have fun.

 

[trickytunadicky]

Leaving my desk now. Wearing a lot of teal.

EDIT:
In case anyone still has the misconception I resemble my avatar

Leaving now, be there in a bit.

You guys weren't fooling. Yuzu Fierce helps ride this heat wave. It's like beer Fresca.

 

[trickytunadicky]

Had a nice time. Will try harder to herd people to a table next time so we can reub. 8 ticks of the same reuben will liven up that thread.

 

[PHBoiler]

Anybody here local got a BCBS snifter/glass that they want to turn into a Side Project Sour glass? I have no clue if this is close or not. Grabbed an extra for a buddy a few months back but he already has one.

I've got an extra 3 day ticket for North Coast Music Festival if anyone's interested, $100 or lambics.

edit: ticket taken for tonight, think it might still be available for Sat and Sun, it's one ticket for the 3 days so not sure how it will work, will keep updated if anyone's interested in a super cheap Sat and Sun.
