LOVE THIS! As usual, Maggie transports me into the restaurant, into the kitchen, feeling the vibe, smelling the food and tasting every morsel. The description at the beginning reminds me of watching my husband’s 93-year-old grandmother born & raised in Cuba, cook. We tried to get her recipes and asked her the measurements for each ingredient and she looked at us blankly, because it is all about feel. Love you & your craft, Maggie! Keep us wanting to come back to Chicago for more!
Ohhhhh Maggie!!! That was so delightful!!! I want to go there right now. Though I also want a bathroom review!!! Not like a gross one but I also love hearing how restaurant bathrooms are because, as a lady with a small bladder, I always visit them. (Also, it's sort of a nice segue into Dennis content.) <3
ARIEL HI!! So nice to see your name. Also holy shit (pun intended), this is a brilliant idea to start including a mini bathroom review sidebar! Dannis what say you!

Maggie, welcome to the Dennis Lee publishing empire.
One day he'll rule us all, and I'm thrilled about it.
Don't get TOO excited, my first decree will probably have something to do with incentivizing public farting or something
I think we could all use more audial comedy in public squares.
I wholeheartedly support this decree
Love seeing the melding of two of Chicago's best food writers in this space. Great first review Marge!
Maggie's the real pro!!
YOU ARE DANNIS
Thank you, dearest Ari! It was long overdue.
