cobraman Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Ya, they have a great beef sandwich ! How you doing Jim ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 My VA primary doc said I have heart disease, so I filed a claim against the VA. Some heart diseases are caused by exposure to Agent Orange and maybe I have something. That BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH chemical already caused me to get prostate cancer.And how are you Ray?

High octane Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hooray!!!! Had to go down to Lutz, FL (near Tampa) for some VA tests today and then we drove an extra 25 miles south to go to Portillo's for a late lunch. The beef was GREAT!!!It IS isn't it? I haven't been to Portillo's yet this week, but it's only Wednesday. I also checked on the upcoming Hooters not too far from Protillo's , but it's a couple months from being open yet.

Ya know Nick, when you make comments like this under the topic "What pleased you today?" , some of us who used to live in Chicago and really miss having a Portillo's nearby find it hard to like those of you who do! LOL! The hot dogs and beef sandwiches are two of my favorites from Chicago that I miss the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL! The hot dogs and beef sandwiches are two of my favorites from Chicago that I miss the most.While I don't know what it's like, I truly believe that if I ever moved out of the Chicagoland area, that I would surely miss a LOT of the food that is offered. I still remember the hot dogs and beef sandwiches from the 50's when I did live in Chicago. Think that they sold beef sandwiches for 50 cents at a stand under the Damen Ave. El tracks.

crazyjim Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 But sometimes you get lucky and food places from Chicago open near you. Portillo's will Fedex a meal to you (expensive). We also order different foods (spanish rice, chili beans, puffed rice cereal, etc.) through Publix food stores. They've been able to get just about everything and are much, much cheaper than Amazon or other online food places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know that my brother used to shop at Publix when he lived in Florida also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Publix is expensive. The real nice thing is that they'll order food that they don't stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
