Thanks for the Thai House rec. Yelp calls Giordano Brothers a sports bar. I was just interested in a non-chain joint with decent food and beer (with a low lunkhead population) in case I want to catch a game on Sunday. Any other...

context of my event parties but this works for regular dinner parties as well. Light appetizers or a cheese/veggie and tapenade plate will hold folks over until the real deal is done and let everyone chat or watch the game. I...

Those rules from Justalittlemoreplease (which I believe are similar to the Association of Food Journalists) are very good ones which we should all aspire to.) Howevever, the game has changed a bit, and both bloggers and...

Dude, you are my hero.. I will be going out that way for a pizza before my next Dodger Game.. or maybe sooner. I am a Fan of all of you above posts but never tried Mozza or Bianca. But I will report back. Thanks for the post!

Thanks for letting us know your game plan based on feedback. Sometimes a person will ask a similar question and never re-enter the discussion leaving me wondering if they’ve even seen the wonderful responses. Sounds like...

flow, even if you disagree. As in any game, the umpires get the call. If you have a big issue or objection, write in to webmaster@chowhound.com. Discussion of food discussion is off-topic here.

crusty Italian rolls or bread. Seven stars does motivate me to sharpen my baking game! I make a tray of cinnamon buns, look at it, do some math, and feel like a millionaire. Anyone remember Simones?

and about a third of the rib tips. Sunday started with a fruit smoothie, followed by the rest of the sandwich. I had the rest of the tips on the way to watch the game and a bowl of gumbo while watching. Net gain from Friday...

sauces. The cheaper verisons are heavy on HFCS. Any herbs are fair game as you can buy them cheaply fresh or in bulk.

learned, I realized what competition BBQ was: kinda like a dog show where a certain product is judged and any aberation is outlawed. Is this right? Is this wrong? No, it is simply the rules of a game. I’m sorry but...

't forget to heap on the condiments/veggies, self-serve at a “bar” in the middle of the restaurant. MBK food court is convenient as a first look-see, but if you’re game just head right out to the streets....

the counter. he explodes in anger saying "what do you think this is? I’m working here. you don’t go to a mets game and ask to pose with the players on the field do you?" quote for quote. - I was just shocked. who does...

. Huck Finn’s audience feauted Mexican families (see above), a group arguing loudly in Polish and a crowd around a booth playing some kind of Asian board game. Don Quixote may not be the best taqueria in Chicago, but its...
