$17 for a beef sammich with hot giardinnara, fries and an iced tea.
I went through the drive thru cuz time was short.
Ate a fry when I got back on the road. Cold and dead. Yuck.
Big sip of warm iced tea with no ice.
Sammich was allsome. Lots of beef and still warm when I got home. Probably won't be back for a while. Pretty steep for a sammich, fries and tea.
A few Thoughts.....

I like my fries dead. Cold, not so much.

I need my sandwich soaked (not just dipped). I have had a dryish Portillo's Italian beef that was the equivalent of dog shit.

If you didn't order your beef "big" I don't believe you had "lots of beef".

Cost wise, part of that you can thank Joe Biden for. I'm just sayin'.
Forgetting him, did you tell the workers at Portillo's (some who probably can't afford to buy their kids decent Christmas presents) that Berkshire Partners are assholes for allowing them to charge you $17 while pretty much fucking them?

I did not order my beef "big". Maybe next time. It was a good amount of beef.

Uncle Joe sets prices at Portillo's? Who knew? Dang it, Joe. Stop it.

I did not tell the employees that their corporate overloards are assholes. They probably know this.

"Good amount of beef" is a bonus! I'm sincerely happy you received a good amount of beef!
Sandwiches at the location on Ontario in Chicago are a bad amount of beef.

If I am supposed to give Uncle Joe (the guy with the old balls who sits in the big boy chair) credit for good economic news, I figured I am supposed to blame him for inflation and businesses having to pay lower level employees higher salaries - which then get passed down to the consumer.

Yeah, I figure most of the lower level employees probably aren't really appreciated. I hope I am wrong for their sake. Some work their asses off.
There is one woman in particular at the Ontario (in Chicago) location who takes great pride in announcing when your order is ready in the restaurant. The unfortunate thing is my guess is no one in "corporate" is aware of/nor recognizes her friendliness and enthusiasm.

Moving on.......

Top 3 places to see Travis Scott today.

Crazy that I posted that - if you look at what I posted on the music thread today.

Responses to the posts after my post above that I made yesterday.......
99 - Someone who a lot of people seem to like. I'm not one of them.
Over - I was at only one of those places yesterday. Thankfully.
TDub - Not a bad post by you. Actually, it's pretty good.

When you have ordered a hot dog have you ever asked for a 12 inch Weiner dragged through the garden?

Top 3 potentially sexual sounding phrases in Chicago that aren't really sexual.

1. I got a 16 incher (softball)
2. I like my beef wet (Italian beef dipped)
3. I got Dibs (Dibs being reserving your parking space by putting something out on the street to "save it")


Top 3 streets that rhyme with Vagina in Chicago.
1. Paulina
2. Melvina
3. Lunt

I had the same thought.

Per the Urbane dictionary:

dibs
gangster slang for balls
Yo man, I gotta scratch my dibs
