the Midwestern power of the sentence "Illinois stands with Ukraine" just spawned a Portillo's in my living room - ThreadSky

Mr Zylnskyy, what are realistic hopes for Caleb Williams going into year 2?

I derive no joy in informing you that Portillos was purchased by PE firm Berkshire Partners in 2014, and the inevitable has been transpiring over the last few years.

Remember, the combo isn't "a sandwich and fries", it's an Italian beef sandwich with a sausage in there too.

LeBatard stole Portillo’s from Smetty and made it uniquely Miami. Bob Evan’s or A&W is on the front line now

What's your Portillo's order? Be aware there IS a correct answer.

I’ve only been a couple of times and the last time was in Scottsdale - the Houston location is way the hell away. BUT I think I got a big beef with fries and a piece of the chocolate cake to go and would likely just do that again

reply

missclare.bsky.social•62 days ago

The Scottsdale location is about five minutes from our house. Next time you're in the Valley I'll send you a list as long as my arm of more interesting restaurants to visit.
