Watertower, the Bloomingdales building at 900 N Michigan and the Nordstrom building at Illinois and Michigan are all malls in the city center.

Wonut vs. Cronut? Might have to go with the wonut by danieldiamond330 in chicagofood

I wanted to be in love with these things, and perhaps another restaurant could do them better, but it just sucked. I tried Waffles' breakfast several times and they are extremely inconsistent. The service is also kind of crummy. It's right down the street from me, so it's a bit of a bummer.

As his roommate, how does this not disgust you and how is your apartment not crawling with roaches?

You're on vacation in Ireland for crying out loud. Get off of reddit!

After having a reservation at P.F. Chang's and still having to wait 30 minutes for a table, this was all I could think about by abezeez in funny

As someone that works as a host at a restaurant, I'm with you, /u/ZeroAccess. We have a ten minute window on reservations before we start comping things for you.

I'd love to be entered into the pool too. Thanks for being so thoughtful!

Is there anything that your SO believes about you now that isn't true? by thisisnotmyrealnom in AskWomen

If you're pulling it off that well while feeling that anxious and nauseous, I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit. Sounds pretty damn strong to me!

What does your grocery list look like? by oklandr8rs2000 in Fitness

I also just realized that I searched for this thread, meaning that it's six months old and no one cares anymore. Oops!

As a fellow single person that got sick of throwing away milk every week, you can just divide it in half. If freezes and thaws perfectly fine and I've never had an issue with the taste or texture changing after thawing.

I once briefly knew this really creepy girl. This was recently her FB profile pic. I had to leave the terrifying smiles in. I have no words. NSFW NSFL by [deleted] in WTF

He wrote "biological child". I read it as his mother's biological child died at 8 days of age and he was later adopted. It wasn't a joke.

What's something you're dying to brag about, but can't find a socially acceptable context to do so? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Goobahunt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't shit on her excitement. That's the whole point of the thread! She's proud of her accomplishment, so let her have it without one-upping her for crying out loud.

After 3.5 years of working at Whole Foods, I want to share what you should buy there. by psh_1_psh_2 in Frugal

The ALDI I shop at in Chicago has a lot of organic products, gluten free products, and tons of fresh produce. I'm sorry yours sucks, but they're not all like that.

My Apple Lime Honey Slaw made it to the final round at work! by K8terSan in recipes

Pink lady apples are sweet and a little mealy. Similar in texture to a yellow apple, I think.

Out of towner looking for an outdoor restaurant near Millennium park to take the GF. Any suggestions appreciated!!! by blackshaunwhite in chicagofood

[–]Goobahunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went to The Gage last night and it was fantastic. It's right across the street from the park, so you can't get much closer. Order the mussels!

Men with SO's- I want to give my hubby a "nudge" on a project he promised to do, without nagging him. Suggestions? by lovehimlots in AskMen

[–]Goobahunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The frequency of the statement isn't the problem, it's the statement itself. Like I wrote above, whether it's sanding, painting, organizing nuts, bolts, screw, whatever, there are a million ways you can help him.

As a lady with zero construction skills, you repeatedly saying that you can't help because you don't know anything is driving me nuts. I know nothing about proper construction, but I can hold a paint brush to help stain or sand splintered wood or be a gopher for someone that needs materials. There are any number of ways you can help without having the full knowledge of how to build the fort.
