Hush puppies, the most underrated food going.

Even mediocre chain hush puppies are good. Real southern hush puppies are insane.

I put together a catered lunch from Wishbone for this Wednesday. The office seemed to be pleased with the choice.

We tried doing carry out from Hole in the Wall for our holiday party, but the dummy who we spoke to on Friday failed to mention they were closed all week this week.

So now it looks like we are ordering from De Pescera. I'm not much of a fan of that place.

I had bought a bunch of delivery when I was quarantined last week waiting to prove that my upper respiratory infection wasn't covid, and froze the leftovers. Lunch today was about 1/3 of an order of PF Chang's chicken with chili sauce and rice.

My goal is to empty the freezer by the end of New Year's weekend. The frozen leftovers are step 1, the vegetables are after that. Only the raw meat and seafood and the Stouffer's Mac and Cheese will remain.

Is there a better Athenian Chicken in Chicago then the one at The Works Chet?

Is Athenian chicken much different than chicken Vesuvio?

Don't think I've ever had that one. I'm not much into Athenian or Vesuvio chicken. More like a lamb in red sauce guy.

The second greatest thing the Greeks did after creating civilization was serving rice AND potatoes with every dish.

In college (@ an HBCU) meals were small. But there was rice and potatoes with every meal. Grits swapped out for rice at breakfast. I was just in a Facebook exchange with long ago classmates where we were laughing at the crap we are to supplement them. Rice and potatoes now gives me the hives.

My wife rarely allows what she calls "double starching" at our table. She can't stop me at Psistaria though!

The food was good but not as great as I thought it would be.

I just don't think you catering works well for upscale items.

Salad w/ chicken tenders from The Port of Peri Peri . Looks like they've got a few locations

im addicted to these tenders, might be the best chicken i've ever had.

How does the chicken compare to Nando's?

hmm...i have never been to Nando's

But now i will ! Thanks

This place is right near my work in Bolingbrook. I know they're probably more known for bone-in chicken, but the tenders are awesome. It's nice to be addicted to something that's actually healthy

Made a quick run to the Jewel's to pick up weekend stuff before the big crowds hit. It was packed with the olds already, and then I realized that I did the old guy thing buying a prepared shrimp cocktail. Fortunately they were well cooked and came with lemon and spicy cocktail sauce.

Perfect for an old who doesn't mind horseradish.

Who minds horseradish? If its not too much it gives a nice flavor, if it is too much it gives more of a good flavor and clears out the sinuses.. Win win.

Nando's is WAY overpriced.

i'll keep that in mind...at Port Of Peri Peri i get a house salad + 4 chicken tender (pretty big) for ~12$

i think that's a fair price , it's good quality stuff for sure
