i swear, there is not a real deli within 20 miles of here. so annoying. this area has the absolute worst food
do you actually work in Chicago?
Because I work in Philly, but it's the part of Philly where there is NOTHING around here. I'm not in center city where you can get just about anything, here nothing, not even fast food.
Except in the summer, when the park opens up again and there is a nice little place called Square Burger.
but you can't eat that everyday
Don't come closer or I'll have to go

Same thing around my work. It's brutal. At least near my place, there are plenty of nice selections.
These food selections are one of the reasons that I am afraid to move to the suburbs.

i remember there being a good place over in the jewel plaza. buddy took me there once.
there are good places in the burbs, just not near my office. it's bland hell here
near the house we have a fantastic chinese place (one of the highest rated ones in the entire area). next to them is a good mexican place. down the street from those is our favorite breakfast place..all are good and reasonable on the price.
There are a couple of bars around here (if you like bar food, which I really don't), and one deli, and one little, itty, bitty, diner where they slop the food together
seriously, the best thing is the food truck across the street.
Don't come closer or I'll have to go

There used to be this AMAZING deli on Algonquin in Rolling Meadows, in the same strip as Lowe's. They piled the corned beef so high - it was definitely one of the best delis I'd ever been to, but of course they went out of business. Best thing we can get over here now is Jason's Deli :?
