Mega-lunch day today. We went to Manny’s Deli and maaan, what an experience. I remembered that they gave you a lot of food, but I forgot that it was a lot of food.
I had a cup of matzo ball soup, a pastrami on rye that was at least twice as big as anything you’d get at, say, the overrated Potbelly, and a ginormous potato pancake. Yes, a whole lotta food for lunch.
I looked around for the defibrillator but sadly, none was in sight. A group of people from the Chicago Fire Academy were nearby, so we were protected on some level. The Academy is about two blocks away.
(Tangent: The Chicago Fire Academy stands on the spot where Mrs. O’Leary’s Barn stood until a certain night in 1871.)
Glenn had a corned beef on rye, and Chris went for some sort of turkey focaccia thing. Here they are post-meal. Note the happy, satisfied grins.
By the time we were done, guilt had set in. We walked back to the office. 🙂
