Chicago corn chip burgers are a thing? I have never heard of one or seen one on a menu.


but I'd eat the ass out of it

Sounds great

I knew the guy would get my ire up a little when he ordered his Lagunitas thinking it was a California import rather than a Chicago import that happened to set up its first production point in California

Yea the problem is the city of Chicago has centered its entire existence around pleasing and attracting these kinds of people, and bad reviews like this matter more to city hall than driving away families who've been here for generations. That's the real story, people like this should have absolutely zero interest in moving here, but they do because starting about 20 years ago the city became obsessed with attracting them.

But being new to the midwest and making friends here can be a struggle. It’s a big city, and more importantly a very spread out one. Its population density is low for a major city. You can’t always walk to your grocery store. You can’t always walk to a busy strip of bars. And whatever friends you do make, you most probably cannot walk to them. That distance, be it between residential streets and bars, or the actual seating between tables at bars, means meeting people can be hard.

Jesus Christ. For an American city this isn't unique to Chicago. Literally every city has denser and more spread out areas. It's a good thing.

What a vagina.

There is incredible food here. But you have to pay for it. Your run-of-the-mill, baseline food can feel like it lacks any nuance. The overriding sentiment around food culture seems to be “the more, the better.” Putting cheese, and bacon, and an egg, and poutine, and fries, and onion rings, and BBQ sauce on everything is considered a culinary feat. Sometimes the terms “foodie cuisine” and “glorified carnival fare” seem interchangeable. Putting corn chips into burger meat is a real thing.

This paragraph is made up garbage. 30 seconds of effort would yield of a bevy of affordable and unique options. Your fault fatty for going to Portillo's everyday.

It seems like a lot of people who grew up or spent long periods of time in California have a hard time adjusting to life anywhere but California. My neighbor moved here from California and one day she took her and her 4 kids back there and was never going to return to this area even to visit as her husband finished his work responsibilities. The house still had all of their stuff until the husband left on the same day the movers showed up so I assume she moved in with family. She supposedly hated it here and that was why they did such a drastic move even with the house being unsold and him not having a new job in California.

People in California are in their own world. They literally think the world revolves around California. They have no comprehension of how other people live or what it's like to live in other parts of the country or world. Most have never even left the state except for vacation purposes to Vegas or Mexico.

He's going to hate NY if he has a problem with chestiness. Chicagoans are humble Iowans by comparison.


no one's going to make an argument that NYC is a friendly city.

Not so sure. This is a run of the mill real estate agent in Manhattan.
