Korean pizza inexplicably has things like corn, tiny dried sardines, brown "teriyaki" sauce, mustard and mayo. Jesus wept, and so did I. The local expat joint has decent fare, but when I heard a Korean tell me that Papa John's was the best pizza, I nearly shit a ninja turtle. Fuck all of you for starting a pizza discussion on like the 6th day of paleo. I'm going to a Korean barbecue buffet and eat meat until I can't feel feelings.
Let's get a few things straight Parker. First off, that Chicago thin crust is shit. Good luck eating that pizza hot without burning yourself on sauce and grease because you don't have a crust to hold. Secondly, those two examples of "pizza" you conjured up through a google search are bullshit. No self respecting pizza place would serve a slice in a foldable container and only shitty places stick limp dicked slices on paper plates. Third, if you ever had good NYC style pizza, the crust should be thick enough and cooked enough to make it look like a Russian on the fucking rings in the olympics doing a horizontal Iron Cross. Until you've eaten a slice like that, you can quietly return to eating your pizza with a fork and knife. Chicago Recs not already mentioned: 1. TWO 2. iNG 3. Girl and the Goat 4. Terzo Piano 5. The Publican I also never miss going to Hot Doug's when I'm in Chicago, but it's a dive and is more nostalgia than really a must have.
Now I kind of wish I took a picture of my pizza slice before I ate it. Wait, is this facebook? I also had a buffalo chicken cheesesteak. Can someone please tell me how wrong I was to eat that for some strange reason like, "the words chicken and cheesesteak should never go together". Or something. All I know was it was warm and sloppy. And oh, so delicious.
They're not as good as regular cheese steaks, but chicken cheese steaks are pretty fucking delicious too. Usually the same italian places that make good pizza also make good chicken cheese steaks. And yeah, I lived in Phila for a while and know that nothing compares to good Philadelphia cheese steaks.
Re: Re: Holiday Drunk Thread They were selling British IDs on Silk Road for something like 20k (not just someone's stolen license, but a complete set of paperwork that included computer entries if I recall correctly). So yeah, I think 21 million could get you into a new life if you wanted to. One hour from home, however, is a lack of desire to actually leave it all behind. Christ, it's a big country, he could have moved to Oregon at least. Or SoCal if he prefers the warmer climate.
Best pizza I have ever had is in New Haven, CT, better than NY. Pepe's Pizza is the best followed by Sally's and then Modern.
Yeah, pizza in this town is slim pickings. I've found that Lucifer's makes a passable pizza that's not outrageously expensive.
So, I just installed a new dishwasher. Do I know how to party on a Friday night or what? If Matt Millen uses the phrase "hurtin' buckaroo" one more time during this game, I'm gonna - actually I have no idea what I'm going to do. But it's pissing me off. I may write a stern letter expressing my displeasure. That doesn't sound as good as cutting a bitch, but I'm not sure who I would cut.
I mean, the average Korean barbecue is way better than the best pizza you can get anywhere in America. Unless we're talking true Italian pizza there is only one obvious choice between the two, and anyone who chooses pizza either hasn't had Korean barbecue or they should feel really bad about all of the poor choices they've made in life. Also, do you know how hard it is to find a Korean place in Europe that serves spicy bulgogi. I've only been to like three different ones, the kimchi is always spicy but the bulgogi never is. I wanna go back there and be like "I know your secrets, I spent a year amongst your people, bring me the god damn spicy shit." I thought that was Pinterest.
Good pizza is nice, a great steak is amazing (whether its beef, elk, etc), but the food I have the most appreciation and enjoy the most when I have it (and I have it rarely maybe thats why I like it most) is good sushi. I'm getting ready to eat at Sushi Ota before I leave SD for Denver, and I'm stoked. It is possibly one of the best sushi joints in the US. If you think I'm exaggerating look it up. Its better than most places in Japan.
Re: Re: Holiday Drunk Thread Or Arizona or Montana or basically anywhere else. New dishwasher? How bout a new garbage disposal? Because...that's the highlife around here y'all.
So without any real effort or intention, I got my SO to start watching porn. She didn't before, but she loves the X-Art, Nubile Films "porn for chicks" stuff. Given that we're long distance this is maddening, because all she does now is say "I watched this one, I saw something we should try" and that can't happen immediately. Double edged swords...
So the next step would me wondering, why have a log distance relationship if you aren't forced to by work/military? Why not find a girl in your city? Even homeless mentally ill women date and blog about it in Chicago. I mean I still talk with a girl I hooked up with in Shanghai. She lives in Europe now and once tried to get me to shit or get off the pot as far as a long distance relationship. I told her that shit just would never work out. Maybe I haven't found the right girl yet to knock me off my feet but I don't see dating anyone who live more than say an hour and half away at most.
