I have just the place for you. Silver Spoon. Cheap but good thai food. 3 blocks from the school. BYOB.

What does it say about me that I'd never heard of a BYOB restaurant? I just had to go look that up to figure out you weren't kidding.bjsesq wrote:I have just the place for you. Silver Spoon.

before I came to Chicago, I'd never heard of it either. It's a great, great thing though.rinkrat19 wrote:What does it say about me that I'd never heard of a BYOB restaurant?

EXCELLENT. I can get a head start on my f-hag network of amazingness in Chicago before I even apply to NU. Come and visit from Wisco or something, we'll tear it up <3forward wrote:Boystown.

I'm assuming you are referencing grades. I have seen no correlation. Some who have been out of UG for a while do great, some do not. Goes the same for the few we have fresh out of UG. I haven't seen an accurate predictor for law school success yet.lushka wrote:bdemon wrote:This is definitely something you should take into account if you don't have prior work experience.

Do you think having work experience gives them any type of upper hand in doing well in school? Or maybe the opposite being they were out of school life for a few years?
There is a place called Gino's East a couple blocks west of the school. It's kinda expensive but it's good.Bumi wrote:I love asian food (pho, thai, whatever) and want to learn what Chicago pizza is all about.

Can I live in Chicago if I really dislike deep dish pizza (and anything besides mustard and ketchup on my hot dog)?ArghItsBlarg wrote:Gino's is pretty good deep dish, although I prefer Giordano's or Pizzaria Uno. Lou Malnati's is okay.
I can't comment on any of the above's proximity to the law school, but more as an overall Chicago experience.
How does Uno compare to other deep dish in Chicago? I loved their franchises that they used to have in CA.ArghItsBlarg wrote:Gino's is pretty good deep dish, although I prefer Giordano's or Pizzaria Uno. Lou Malnati's is okay.

Uno is the best, hands down. I've been to Gino's, Giordanos, Lou's, and Due as well. The franchise Unos are not the same as the original Uno either.rinkrat19 wrote:Can I live in Chicago if I really dislike deep dish pizza (and anything besides mustard and ketchup on my hot dog)?ArghItsBlarg wrote:Gino's is pretty good deep dish, although I prefer Giordano's or Pizzaria Uno.

Of course. In fact most pizza places in Chicago don't really do deep dish, or do it poorly.rinkrat19 wrote:Can I live in Chicago if I really dislike deep dish pizza (and anything besides mustard and ketchup on my hot dog)?ArghItsBlarg wrote:Gino's is pretty good deep dish, although I prefer Giordano's or Pizzaria Uno.

If you live in Chicago you are required to eat hot dogs with mustard, pickles,onion, tomato, hot peppers, and bright green relish. Ketchup is strictly forbidden.rinkrat19 wrote:Can I live in Chicago if I really dislike deep dish pizza (and anything besides mustard and ketchup on my hot dog)?ArghItsBlarg wrote:Gino's is pretty good deep dish, although I prefer Giordano's or Pizzaria Uno.

But never put ketchup on a hot dog. That's gross.

I had Due the other week when I went to visit Chicago and it sucked. I love Unos franchises but the pizza I got from Due took 30 minutes longer than the estimated time (they told me 40 minutes, it took over an hour), had the wrong toppings (but I wasn't going to wait another 40+ minutes for them to remake), and it was way overcooked/burnt (the crust was pitch black in certain parts and mostly rock hard). I really hope this is not representative of the way the Uno/Due pizzas are normally. I was a sad sad panda.NDDT wrote:Uno is the best, hands down.
