I was just in Chicago for 10 days and didn't eat any Deep-dish. I did have some great Swordfish though.

"HIGHER" is playing at Palace of Fine Arts on Weds 9/24 (tomorrow).
$18 entry includes a Mon-Fri Squaw/Alpine Comp
:yourock:
Just wondering who amongst us is planning on going to see it?
Should be Cinders & me, and Miqy, plus TiniDakini and ShadeGardener, at the Late Show.
If we get there early we'll look for Tailgate activity...
Hhmmm. Maybe could do...
EDIT
Can't do. Darn it!
But what's your opinion on pizza?Quote:

I'll join. As far as pizza goes. I make a pretty good vegi pizza at home. But Base camp pizza for best pizza here in south lake. As far as N.Y. vs Chicago style pizza NY all day. Let's not get started on fish tacos though.
Ill be game to give a pair of rock skis a decomposed granite base grind if we get enough snow.
I hope to progress from pizza to French fries this winter and hopefully the toppings are always deep.
For pizza in Reno, I've been pretty impressed with South Creek Pizza in south Reno. Wood fired thin crust. Fresh, quality ingredients. Very cool, friendly owners. Always have great beer selection both on draft and in bottles.
Since we're talking east coast vs. west coast food items... are those lobster rolls at that place on West River in Truckee any good? I keep meaning to try them. I'm not expecting them to match the rolls I get whenever I'm back in Maine visiting family, but hopefully decent?
Anyone going to the Sacramento premiere of Higher on Thursday?
I should be going to the movie as long as I get back from Santa Rosa in time.Quote:

Good Thin crust pizza in Reno try Nu Yalk Pizza on S. S. Virginia. They even have attitude, assholes! Jeter Sucks! Go Sox!
I like Golden Flower Vietnamese behind Circus Circus. Gold & Silver Diner for that throwback feel. What do ya need to know?
Morgans is good and a fair price for what you get but IMHO not worth the 18.00 for a small roll.Quote:

Phil...what do you expect from a Sox fan? He's got that omnipresent taste of Yankee fan cock in his mouth, which overpowers his taste buds.Quote:

And just to be clear, Chicago is not on the coast. It is the in the mid west.
Dude, you'd seriously eat a crustacean that has traveled 3000 miles? Good luck with that.Quote:

^^^ Provided nobody gets caught in one, definitely.
In that case, we can safely assume that your opinion on pizza is solidly pro.Quote:
