Eating my way through Chicago

Ahh, food. I decided that after my vacation, I would go on a diet. A major, zero carb diet. I know it's not the healthiest diet to be on, but I just want something to jumpstart my weightloss which has been at a plateau for a couple months. I figure I'll do the low-carb thing for a little while and slowly add in the complex carbs.

Oh, thai noodles, how I'll miss thee.

And Garrett's popcornsicle ... I'll have to put you on hold ...

Serrano ham-wrapped asparagus, I think I'm allowed to keep you ...

Sushi, my love. Ahh, sushi ...

I don't know if I can give you up. Maybe I'll save you for a special occasion.

Holy Cow! Chips ... I wonder if I can duplicate you with turnips?

Holy Cow! burger ... I can eat you without a bun. I could eat two (okay, that's stretching it).

I never thought I would miss pizza. But Chicago pizza, how I'll miss thee. I'll just have to dream about you instead.

In the meantime, on vacation I enjoyed myself. We didn't go anywhere especially ... special, but we had some damn good meals. The Grill, 1492 Tapas, Timothy O'Toole's, Harry Carey's, Salude (wine bar), Gino's East, Cindy's Pizza, Garrett's Popcorn, Silver Spoon Thai, Hot Woks Cool Sushi, all the food at Taste of Chicago .... ahh, good stuff. I think I might be okay with my memories of carbs for now ... :) Excuse me, I need to hunt down some meat.
