The Layover
What can I say, I love the Big Apple Inn! I can’t get enough of the smokes (for
lunch) and the egg, cheese and sausage sandwiches (for breakfast). I tried the
ears a few times, but the consistency got me the last time. And somehow I
always manage to forget about the tamales. I need to order more tamales!
Acknowledged as soon as I came in. The guy at the register was great, explained
the menu in detail. He explained how I can save. I got the Shack Tastic
platter, and it was off the hook**** Made to order. shrimp was cooked a
little too much but either way it was great. I got it spicy and it was really
nice and hot like I like it.
Every few months, I find myself at King Plow for labs and such, and with only
an hour for lunch, I have to go somewhere nearby. By noon, my belly is usually
full of lots and lots of good coffee, my metabolism is through the roof, I’m
jittery, and desperate for food. I usually default to Yeah Burger, because
it’s delicious and close (though a little pricey for a quick lunch), but a
friend recommended Curly’s, so I decided to check it out.
I always like to nibble on a little something when drinking my boozey martinis
and think their small plates are perfect—especially the ‘in jars’!! the
bartenders are knowledgeable and always provide great recommendations for
dranks!
Went here while visiting a friend, he said it was the place to go for ribs and
he was definitley right! We went on a friday night around 8pm, it was busy on
the inside. All the tables were full and there was live music. I ordered a half
rack of ribs with mac & cheese and baked beans. I also decided I had to try the
pecan pie.
I actually get their regular “Frank” with nothing more than ketchup, mustard
and onion and it is incredible! I can’t resist their corn dogs either, they’re
the best I’ve ever had. Their waffle fries are good and served with a sauce
I’ve been told is phenomenal although I’m not much for sauce on my fries.
THE BURGER!!!! That’s all you need to know about Holeman & Finch. My friends
and I showed up on a cold Sunday for brunch after a night of partying. One of
my friends raved about the food here. So I had to of course come here and see
for myself.
Do yourself a favor and pick up some pastries at one of the Farmer’s Markets
where The Little Tart is a regular vendor, or visit their bricks-n-mortar
location in Grant Park.
Came here for the first time for dinner with a big group from work. It wasn’t
crowded when we got there but it was pretty full by the end of the night,
especially for a Tuesday. The bar is located right by the front door so you
really can’t help but order a drink. I got the holiday punch but the bartenders
are very knowledgeable and will make you anything you ask. It was a little
heavy on the ginger, but grew on me.
They DO have an english menu, and had many dishes written in Chinese on the
walls. I would be interested in knowing whether everything on the walls is in
the English menu.
I was quite impressed with Octopus bar, partly because the environment is a
little bit high class and the menu always has something interesting to try.

If your looking for a nice quiet place with beautiful decor this place is not
for you…If you’re looking for an unpretentious place to drink and listen to a
juke box,this is the place just for you.
This place is perfect at 330PM sunny weekday. It’s pretty awesome even at dusk
when the wind kicks up and the sun dips below Twin Peaks. Dress in layers to
protect from the elements and to protect from any perceived rudeness. I’ve
never had a problem here. It’s perfect to meet up with a group of pals before
dinner.
Enrique and Alicia Ramirez first opened the original Senor Fish in 1988 in
Highland Park. Senor Fish was the originator of the Mexican fish taco sensation
that occurred in the early 1990s strongly due to the numerous food critics that
heralded Senor Fish and their menu. It was Enrique’s trips to the Puerto
Vallarta beaches where he drew inspiration in creating the fish taco. During
these trips, he would witness people grilling fish and seafood on the beach,
pair it with tortilla and salsa, and…
Swan Oyster Depot is a food landmark in the city and it’s a surprise that it
has taken me this long to try. I liken it to visiting Alcatraz. Tourists from
all over line up to try it, but locals tend to stay away. The major hurdle for
me has been the line. It took nearly an hour to get three stools at the very
end of the long bar.
Bring Cash, NO CC ACCEPTED
I was in town for a friend’s birthday and knew I had to get doughnuts from this
joint as her treat. She has tried to go so many times, but keeps missing it.
They sell out fast! …or she goes to work late. ;)
Girl & the Goat has been serving fun foods, craft beers, and making wine in a
rustic and bad ass environment since summer 2010. The restaurant opens at 4:30
every day, and stays open until 11pm on weeknights and until midnight on
Fridays and Saturdays (until those last late night eaters scrape their fork
across the plate for the last time, or finish licking their plates until
they’re shiny and clean). The Goat’s menu is divided into three categories:
Vegetable, Fish, and of…
I was here this past Fall and after a few days of hitting it hard at the bars,
we wanted something a little more easy going.
