I’m not an authority on it, but my wife’s family (Chicagoland natives) love Italian beef -- and go to places other than Portillo’s -- so I think it’s more than touristy. Even if it is touristy, it’s so good I’m happy to go any chance I get.

Have not had that, but I bet it is amazing. The dish that is most memorable for me still is the roasted cauliflower with pickled peppers, pine nuts and mint. I’ve made it at home before and it’s good, but when I had it at G&tG it was revelatory. (And before having it at G&tG, I didn’t like cauliflower — it converted me…

It’s also focusing on cities. Wasn’t Donny supposed to be helping to revive small towns, especially coal towns? These tax breaks give construction companies even more reason to ignore everything outside of the cities.

Ummm, no. I’m no MOT, but based on the recipes I found for chulent/cholent, only in the broadest sense are they comparable. Chulent is a beef stew with beans. Cassoulet is a melange of duck, (usually) two kinds of sausage, a hearty pork ragout, and beans — the ultimate French comfort meal. 

I loooooove Portillo’s Italian beef with hot giardiniera. So so good. And they ship! My wife’s from Chicagoland, and one year for Christmas her relatives sent some pizzas and Italian beef. The pizzas were OK (Malnati’s, but not as good as getting it locally), but the beef turned out surprisingly well — very close to…

So it would be a gigantic rip-off in Coach...? Not sure I see your point. (Also, AFAIK they don’t typically offer 1st class food options in coach.)

In case you consider pulling your head out, remember Kid Rock is doing the same on the other side.....

How many DoorDash drivers are there in that one area that it would cause such a fracas? Does Clarendon really have that much demand for DD food deliveries that there are dozens of DD drivers working a weekday lunch??

Woodhouse already put out a fundraising robocall wherein he explicitly stated that the Dems were trying to steal the election from Harris. The audacity is boundless.

Yup. I didn’t sign up for an unlimited bill — I got in line to pay $4 for my order. Take if off the next order, but I’m not buying that car’s food/drink sight unseen. I don’t give a blank check to charities, why would I give it to the non-charity behind me?!?

Lighten up, Francis. It was a joke about JBJ using the British spelling of honor. I don’t give a flying fuck where he’s actually from. He could be from Philly for all I care. Are you the mayor of Sayreville or something?

Wikipedia says he was born in Perth Amboy, but what do I know.

Peanut butter burgers are an underappreciated delicacy. There was one restaurant in the area where I grew up that served them. At first, you think it’s going to be gross/wrong, but the flavors go together quite well. I’ve made it for myself at home before, and it’s just really good. I’d recommend not adding other…

“It’s an incredible honour

On what day does he pour his almond milk in a bowl of epsom salts and eat it for breakfast — day 18, day 22?

So what was in the “losins” pocket -- IOUs? 

It said no drugs, so I’m guessing no (unless they only meant illicit drugs).

NO ONE would be as sane as they were when they went in. It’s not complete sensory deprivation because he could still talk to himself (which may lead to other issues), but I think it’s likely to have long-lasting psychological effects on him. $100,000 isn’t close to what it would take for me to even consider doing it.

Even better if you edited it to clarify the pronoun, to wit—

This all happens within the home, not in public. If your kid is acting up in the living room, you’re supposed to take him outside rather than to his bedroom?!?
