I dropped by manny's yesterday for a pastrami on rye and potato thing to go.

They still have lots of weird jokes at the serving line, but everything was 
fine. I suspect the portions shrank a bit compared to maybe 5 years ago, but 
the food was still good, even though it was colder when I got back about 10 
minutes later. The potato thing was still cripsy though.

Will re-add it to the lunch rotation.

The Portillos portion of italian beef is now the size of a hot dog. Sad.

It's been awhile, but I'd love to have a corned beef sangwich from there 
soon.

Yeah, I have a relative that lives near United Center.  We could get 
Nicko, and anybody else we can stand to be around for a couple hours! 
Hah!

If it's M-F, I'll mostly be limited to a lunch "hour". Is Nicko still at 
the same place? I tried to email him some time ago, but never heard back.

I went there on 8/4/22 for a couple of corned beef sandwiches for
dinner.   Picked them up around 1:00.  Preordered them online, so they
were ready for me when I arrived.

Was sadly disappointed for the first time.  Corned beef wasn't very
fatty and tasty. Usually, they taste great after an hour in the
fridge, but not this time.  Relatively tasteless.

Sandwiches were still huge, but I'll have to think twice about
driving the 40 miles into the city for them again. And at $17.95a
sandwich, not cheap to begin with.

I don't think I've ever travelled 40 miles to pickup a pre-made sandwich. 
Sort of a weird move to start with.

$18 is over the top for a sandwich. You're getting quite the pile of food, 
but not like it was years ago. I can polish one off their current corned 
beef in one sitting, with the pancake thing, and I'm not a 450 pounder.

it's fine as a treat once in a while. You have to eat there though, for 
the bizarre experience it is.

He's not working there anymore.  I could ping him on FB.

I just went there yesterday. It was like $28 for a pastami, the pancake 
and a coffee.

Have him say hi, if he's willing.

That is 4 regular Shake Shack burgers, in Sears tower. The Sears tower rule doesn't apply there.
