Food Bills

Everybody has to eat, and more often than not, we like to eat out. Most of us aren't foodies or culinary experts, We just like good food at a decent price.

This blog is all about eating out in Chicago, generally not at the trendy places, the hoi polloi fancy spots or the big chains.

I'm definitely not a foodie, just a hard working guy that likes good food and I'm going to share my dining experiences with you. Hopefully it will give you the food layperson's view on Chicago spots. To keep your food bills in check.

I will also Include some “food news” about places located in my “hood” up on the Far North Side of Chicago and Evanston.

I do travel a lot as well, so I will also include a little page with some food notes from my travels!

RA Sushi Bar


Orion Beer!

Most importantly Ra has my favorite Japanese, or should I say, Okinawan beer, Orion.  This by itself is enough to keep me going there on a regular basis!  

Other than that, the small plates and sushi I had there were good, the kitchen was open late and the drink menu was fun.  Prices were fair, considering the location in viagra triangle.  I had a great time there!  The sauteed peppers, chili ponzu wings and the spicy shrimp rolls were really tasty and made the orion beer go down quickly.
