ExtraMSG.com is a culinary blog and Portland, Oregon food guide. Earlier this year, the site's proprietor/owner/eater/writer known as "extramsg" embarked on a week-long eat-a-thon in Chicago.
If you have not yet read it, extramsg's account of his trip has now reached its sixth impressive entry, and is accompanied by a photo album of over 1,000 photos. During his trip, extramsg focused on all of the possible culinary adventures that make our city exciting: Thai, Mexican, Maxwell Street, Soul food, Indian, Chinese, Italian, and even Charlie Trotter's. His precise photography, detailed note-taking, and voracious appetite result in a culinary love letter to dining in Chicago.Extramsg, a food-lover, from over 2,000 miles away, knows Chicago better than many long-time residents. Congratulations to ExtraMSG.com on a job well done, and thank you from someone who loves what Chicago has to offer.
