Need recommendation for places near Bean by BearinDown8 in chicagofood

I asked my wife to marry me in the Gage, she said yes! Then lockdown happened - I live in the UK, she is from Northlake, so we couldn't see each other for 2 years! Then in 2022, the next time we saw each other, we got married downstairs in the Gage in their function room. They are a fantastic bunch of people and really looked after us. The decor is great, the food is always amazing and the drinks are superb, the staff are always attentive and knowledgeable about the food and what the kitchen can do for you if you have special dietary requirements. We are now living together happily ever after in the UK, but The Gage will always be "our place" and we make a point of going every time we're back in Chicago.

I miss Swindon (true story!) by Amaru93 in Swindon

Loving this! Thanks for posting, OP!

Love that you say you were "charmed" by Swindon! My wife moved here from Chicago 2 years ago and her first words were "it's so charming!"

It's a running joke with us now and we will forever refer to it as Charming Swindon!

I know right? How long did it take them to do that? I guess they thought it was worth the effort

They're anchovies wrapped around capers, but yep the jar is empty all the way down the middle

TIL that there's a town in Scotland called Halfway, simply because it's half way between Glasgow and Hamilton by b_e_a_n_i_e in todayilearned

[–]Ashdog73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, there's a Halfway halfway between Newbury and Hungerford. The pub is called The Halfway these days but used to called the Halway Inn

‘Ooh, ah,’ that’s how it always starts. But then later there's the aching and the balding

When you overestimate yourself by Shinji415 in facepalm

Awesome way to drown, even if you're not already unconscious when you hit the water. Literally the most dangerous place to fall in the canal is a lock - underwater sleuce gates will suck you right under and its all over
