it's really no secret....i am truly, madly, deeply in love with food. (yes, just like savage garden).
i find it much easier to pick foods i
don't like as opposed to choosing my favorites. there are less than a handful of foods i don't care for. articulating my top 10 favorites, or a top 25 for that matter, would be nothing short of agonizing. "wait,
brunch can't be considered one line on my list? but whhhyyyy?" i don't discriminate when it comes to trying something new...and therefore i love a wide variety of foods.
although, i supposed if my arm was twisted i could create a quick rambling of things i never seem to get enough of...eggs benedict, pan-seared scallops, hashbrowns,
ginger steak salad, chicago dogs, chips & spicy salsa with a side of guac, insalata caprese...etc...wait,
chicago dogs?
i know. i know. it seems a little unfair to have all that pretentious, homemade food lumped together with a pre-cooked piece of mystery meat. but i just can't get enough of that celery salted, all beef dog topped with simple yellow mustard, tomato slices, chopped onions, bright green relish, sport peppers and a crisp dill pickle...all cozy in a poppy seed bun. (my stomach is practically yelling for one right now) the only problem is, i do not live in chicago...so how do i satisfy my craving?
sonic.
that's right...occasionally, i put on my big sunglasses and secretly drive to sonic and purchase my little slice of heaven. in my opinion, sonic has the most authentic chicago dogs in the state of indiana. i am by no means a fast-food connoisseur, but i'm certain they have perfected the foil packaging and toppings down to every last morsel. it's delicious work of edible engineering, folks.
if you're feeling extra fancy, top it off with a cherry limeade. you won't be disappointed!
