Anyone have any good Italian restaurants? Used to go to merlo on maple but they closed years ago 😞

Quartino Ristoranto is one of my favs, definitely check it out. It’s in Gold Coast/RN.

Love Piccolo Sogno, one of my favorites. Their patio in the summer is incredible.

RPM Italian is pretty good too, but I wouldn’t consider it strictly Italian.

My parents are fans of Tufanos, but I thought it was overrated and pretty greasy.

I’ve heard good things about Topo Gigio. And nearby is Orso’s which has been in Old Town for a while

Pasta Palazzo in Lincoln Park
Nonnaninna on the river
El cucina di puglia in west loop

I like Gibsons Italia on the River. If you want to travel Buona Terra and Testaccio are across the street from each other in Logan Square.

Self-care tip: Make it a point to discover (then share with your people) your LIFESAVERS.

Lifesaver: preferred item which has unique powers of improving your mood.

“My lifesaver is Milo’s Sweet Tea. When I am in “the trenches”, or the world is on fire, or the ship is sinking with me on it, give me a Milo’s Sweet Tea. I will then be able to survive!”

Common lifesavers:
• snacks (snickers)
• drinks (Sweet Tea)
• songs/bands (Kokomo)
• pop culture references (Ron Swanson quotes)

What are yours?

My parents are visiting this week and mom and I made dinner tonight. Salmon is seasoned with Trader Joe’s ajika (a Georgian spice blend) and we just roasted the broccoli. The standout is the mejadara. It’s spiced rice and lentils with fried onions and is popular throughout the Middle East. We used the recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi’s cookbook, Jerusalem.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
