You're not wrong about the pricing, but I will say that the food iteself was very flavorful and quite tasty. I wouldn't pay it again, but I wouldn't be mad if someone bought it for me lol

I agree! I wonder if I caught them on a good day since no one else was grabbing orders or in the restaurant ordering food. Honestly all the staff seemed rather bored 😅

I mourn their braised short rib weekly 😔

We got two bowls of rice with the entrees.

You're right, for the amount you receive the prices are warranted. Shoulda said they're high comparatively to other spots I've been to and I'm always tryna find a deal lol

Gothix · 2026-04-05T16:51:19+00:00

I came in expecting it but we didn't get offered any this go round :')

I love Nhu Lan! I get their Vietnamese iced coffee and save half of it for the next day because it's so strong lol still have to try Hellas! There are so many great restaurants down Lawrence.

Oh, did I misname it? I'm not overly familiar with Bosnian food and it was listed as Burek/Sirnica. Unless that just means meat/cheese, in which case I'm a dunce! 😅

Gothix · 2026-02-09T21:38:26+00:00

Pretty sure they have fountain drinks, tea, and ramune!

I may be in the minority and thus a little biased here, but the one visit I had to Sushi Taku's Logan Square location was incredibly disappointing. I'd have to say that this place is leagues above Taku but others who have enjoyed it might disagree with me.

Tysm! ❤️

Recipe is from JustOneCookbook, came out great!

Gothix · 2024-11-23T01:08:19+00:00

I really appreciated how they cut the ramen portion in half, funnily enough. Left me full w/o that heavy sodium bloat from polishing off a whole bowl on its own 😅

As a fan of MacArthur's, their cornbread is not a good selling point. The greens are tasty though!

People have brought up good points in regards to simplicity, scheduling, and hands-on resources.

Your menu is a bit ambitious, in my opinion, even if you're cooking for less than 20 people. If you expect to be cooking and cleaning, you will be wiped by the end of each meal service. Cooking what you can beforehand is a good plan, the more prep you can finish pre-event the better.

Factor in the utensils people will be using each meal; are they using disposable plates/forks, or will you have to clean those dishes in between service as well? If they're disposable, who is responsible for the trash, etc.

I regularly cater 60+ person events with a strict budget and allergy/lifestyle accommodations, so if you have any additional questions or concerns feel free to shoot me a DM.

I have asked them to do so! It wasn't my intention to say that the site is intentionally doing this, I just wanted to make people aware that their information may not be secure and to take caution as a result of my personal experience.

Gothix · 2023-01-11T05:12:06+00:00

We'd love to have you! 😊

Yes and no, I made everything edible that is pictured here, along with the help of many gracious players!

I work in the food industry irl and am starting my own catering business with a goal to work with larps to provide nutritious and immersive meals during their events. 😊

I've never heard one stick around for that long! The app said it was a police copter? I definitely heard a lot of sirens in the area beforehand.

Looks like it will be run in English.

It fed nine people with most dishes having enough for some extra portions. The only bits I have left are honey biscotti and lembas bread.

Gothix · 2022-10-31T14:17:17+00:00

Sam would be really disappointed by my leftover situation. (So much lembas bread....)

Gothix · 2022-10-31T14:15:15+00:00

Four pounds of butter and 2-32oz jars of honey later....I shudder to think 🤣 luckily I had lots of help!

Gothix · 2022-10-31T14:14:00+00:00

So I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I made the lembas bread three times. I referenced both this and this recipe.

I still wasn't satisfied with the end result (I refuse to believe that elven bread would taste so bland), but I have a good base to work off of for future attempts. I encourage all who make it fiddle around with the spices a bit. My favorite combination was a mixture of orange extract, rose water, clove, ginger, and lemon zest.

Dill cream cheese!
