So Gastrodamus has been uber excited to take me to Urban Belly noodle shop in the outskirts on nowhereburbs in Chitown. We ordered the #14 (vegetarian with pescetarian broth) and I swear I’ve never had tofu this good. And I freakn’ HATE tofu! Dem da fermented soybean breaks.

Me standing on our booth for the sake of this shot at Nookies. Gastrodamus (hand shown) and I split the vegetarian friendly Green Goddess - eggs, swiss chard, asparagus, swiss cheese, and hash browns. We may have found our version of Icebox in Chitown.

Green Goddess breakfast skillet from Nookies in Edgewater. Major nomnoms, one of the few ways swiss chard actually tastes good ;p

Strawberry and rhubarb french toast from Nookies. Tasted only okay (way too eggy for a dessert), but the rest of the meal was incredible.

Chicken atop the most tender fluffy gnocchi I’ve ever had. Each gnocchi was stuffed with asiago and was smothered in delectable pink vodka sauce.

I apologize for the blatant flash but I had to document the gooey, burnt crunch cheesiness of my baked rigatoni from Tratterio Demi in Evanston. You’re welcome!
