Confirmed with Link: Pens trade for Patric Marleau

[NMK11]

Marleau looks like Kyle Chandler and I can't stop seeing it. Reminds me of Early Edition.

 

[Pens x]

Not sure if it's been mentioned, and it's no surprise, but Simon has given up #12:

I wish he would give up his roster spot as well

 

[EightyOne]

That’s on purpose. It’s called “glitch”.

Wasn't sure if it were an overlay or not.

 

[Tweed]

Coaches Corner?

 

[HandshakeLine]

Yeah but a rose if by any name.

Is pelmeni REALLY any different?

A bunch of cultures have dumplings of similar sort.

Man, you want to start a war here? Besides, one you fry, the other you boil.

I mean

A hotdog IS a sandwich, right?

 

[Empoleon8771]

I'll start a war here, Primanti's isn't actually good and Pittsburghers only think it is good because Pittsburgh food is shit

I pray that they take Marleau to Primanti's and make a whole video out of it just so he says "this is okay I guess", which is the nicest thing anyone should say about primanti's.

I think it's pretty good ... If you take the slaw off, that is.

 

[Bumpus]

Hot sausage, double egg, double cheese, hold the slaw - Is one of the best breakfast sandwiches out there.

The trick with Primanti's is, most of the menu is hot garbage, but some of it's really good. Especially if you're hammered.

Primanti's is respectable as an institution but it isn't actually good.

Fundamentally how can your thing be "fries on sandwich" and your fries are bad?

I lived in Chicago and there was a place near Wrigley Field called Lucky's. It's explicitly a Primanti's knockoff but far better because they got the fries right.

Oh god, Lucky's. At least you didn't say Weiner's Circle.

My favorite Chicago horrible food place was Duk's on Ashland. All the building was painted with Donald Duck, but the owner got sued by Disney so he changed the sign and then painted mustaches on the ducks.

 

[MalkinsPierogi]

really, are you sure...bud

people wouldn’t get called bud if they educated themselves before making idiotic comments ‍

 

[HandshakeLine]

You'd better back off @vodeni, he might call you "bud"! Not even Tito was that terrifying.

That sounds very Chicago.

Great food scene. People have a similar stereotype about Deep Dish for Chicagoans as they do about Primanti's for Pittsburghers. Acting like I ate it everyday and stuff. It was a once-every-3-months commitment for me.

I lived in the North Center/Ravenswood area. I take it you were more on the West Side or West Loop?

I was pretty much all south side for 12 years, with a stint in Ukie Village, but mostly Pilsen, Heart of Chicago, Little Village, and North Kenwood (do not recommend living north of 47th and east of State, btw).

I miss Chicago a ton. Great city, great food, great almost everything except the weather.

I mean it ain’t great, but it’s a sandwich with fries on it.

To be honest I was very Caucasian and almost never found reasons to go to the South Side. I went to a White Sox game once and went to Midway a whole bunch. Chinatown a couple times.

Having said that, I went to Pilsen for Mexican food a couples and WOW. Its reputation is very well-earned. I'd recommend getting Mexican food in Pilsen for any Chicago visitor.

And it's better than the O.

I never had any trouble and I'm lily white too. People thought Pilsen was way scarier (2005-2010) than it really was. North Kenwood, on the other hand, was a demilitarized war zone. Still didn't have any trouble, but I saw someone get a screwdriver through the neck two doors down once. They lived.

As far as Mexican food goes, I'm still mourning Neuvo Leon which was the BEST. That place fed me through grad school. El Milagro too.

Incidentally, Dusek's in Pilsen is a really good Czech-fusion restaurant that's in the heart of Pilsen, which tickles my heart a bit.

I wasn't like "oooohhhhh I'll avoid it." It was more just that going to the South Side never really entered my consciousness. Unless I fell asleep on the Red Line. I didn't have friends there or anything.

Taqueria Sabor e Sazon is the best Mexican restaurant in Pilsen now. Just my $.02.

Label doesn’t matter but the hotdog should be boiled not some grilled freak show.

 

[EightyOne]

I refuse to believe any Midwest or East city can actually claim to have "good" Mexican food.

California taquerias are so damn good.

I even say that at least Texas is bad at it.

AZ and NM I haven't tried.

wut. I don't like hot dogs period, but boiled?????
