• Nagrant is horribly, evilly forced to eat the tiramisu at D’Amato’s bakery on Grand for Serious Eats. The poor guy is just obligated to eat these delicious things and then write about them. Ludicrously prolific AND tragic hero, that man.

• Being Totally Sweet In Chicago (god, great blog name) delivers these mouthwatering images of the burger and the deli-meat bloody mary at The Twisted Spoke, and we were all set to compliment the hell out of them when we realized they were janked from others’ Flickrs. Which we do too, so no harm no foul.

• Tastybeat is all over the banh mi at Nhu Lan on Lawrence street. Speaking as someone who personally had a highly sub-par banh mi not one week ago, we are very very happy to get this recommendation.

• KingT profiles the Tamale Guy — you know, the guy who comes into Bucktown/Lincoln Park bars and offers to sell you a tamale. That guy.
