For those that wash their produce what’s your go to?

I started soaking them in baking soda and water for 15mins. Saw a few articles, post, and videos that stated this help get some of pesticides off.

vinegar and water or the organic fruit vegetable spray.

I do it right when I am about to use. Skin fruit I peel after.

What's the food spots to eat in Colorado Springs anyone?

Gonna be in DC next week for 1 day. Getting there around lunch time and leaving next day around lunch too. Any restaurant recommendations are appreciated (kid friendly) Gonna be staying right near all the museums and monuments, but will have my car so can drive a little bit too

 

[heelsandeers]

I’m very pro-chimichurri. Great with grilled steak

Bordeleaise and Bearnaise are also >

I made chimichurri once and it was terrible but I think I need to get a higher quality olive oil for it to work

Nice! Getting up there with slice total . I've got some pizza spots lined up that I want to try pretty soon so that should boost my count quick, lol.

Nice bro ChiTown is such an awesome frikkin city. Is this your first time there? I the Chicago River tour- have done it twice. Try to hit up Bang Bang Pies on North California Avenue for legit comfort food if you have the time.

And ofcourse a nice little cruise down LSD(LakeShore Drive) take in them views & waves from Lake Michigan. Are you doing the Sears Tower tour?

I can't wait to see the pics .

How's your time in Chicago been so far? Hope you're having fun bro.

chicago was awesome. not my first time there, spent a few weeks for work there way back in the day. and then have been for a weekend to watch the bruins play the blackhawks. i really like that city. the humidity was tough but it's beautiful city with great places to eat.

Robert's Pizza and Dough Co:

Bonci:

Donut Vault:

Pequods:

Pat's Pizza and Ristorante

NADC Burger @ the Drop In: might be THE BEST smashburger i've ever had. highly recommend and apologize for the crappy picture

 

[DeadsetAce]

photo dump part 2:

Firecakes:

Small Cheval: while that NADC smashburger might be the best smashburger, Au Chevel and Small Cheval still might do the best straight up cheese burger. this one isn't as good as Au Cheval but it's damn good

Lou's:

Jeni's:

thanks again walkingBred and checks mcgee for the recommendations. i hit a few of the spots that you mentioned so much appreciated. and it was all good. honestly the only mid thing in that whole bunch was the churro donut and i think that's just cause i waited till later to eat it so it wasn't as fresh and soft. appreciate y'all, man

 

[tay1]

Its cute people think they can just wash it off.

Internet got people thinking vinegar and baking soda is the cure

 

[heelsandeers]

That smash is looking right

Going to need an audit of that slice count

 

[DeadsetAce]

Going to need an audit of that slice count

yeah i adjusted the party cut and deep dish slices

i went 3 = 1 slice or 2 = 1 slice for those since theyre clearly smaller

Chimichurri Sauce
Naan Bread

40 minutes isn’t THAT much for something you really like.

I’ve never had Cane’s, but I’d have to be in the area for me to care to try it.

 

[deusavertat]

THat extra jerk sauce

80 minute drive for THAT experience?

Nah.

Agree but for fast food chicken it's kind of nuts

She'll pass 20 better chicken spots on the way there

Nah.

I agree BUT…….. #notcultural

Nah that is more #Individual than anything.

I mean I'm sure we've all drove 40 minutes to spend time with some"thing" we didn't really like, so I GUESS.

I had dinner at Red Robin yesterday evening.

I decided to keep it simple and have the Monster Burger. I also had the peaches and cream milkshake.

My dumbass got senile and forgot to request them not to put relish on it since it's part of the ingredients for this burger.
Relish isn't bad, it's just an odd fit on a burger to me. It wasn't bad with the relish on it though. I just have to remember to request them not to include it for future orders.

This burger is a good bargain burger because it includes an extra patty by default, so it'll be cheaper that way since you don't have to add an extra patty by request. The only trade-off is the default ingredients will be basic as hell.

 

[heelsandeers]

Nothing simple like a 1lb burger
