Don't ruin it. I want to see his reaction after he goes.

Some of the "virgins" take forever to get served because they don't know how to order, like they expect some sort of line and orderly process.

I don't want to totally ruin it for S&L but damn I really wish we had been in Chicago overnight and had went there. That looks awesome, lol.

I just had a chocolate cake shake on your recommendation and I wasn't impressed.
The Italian Beef sandwich with hot peppers was awesome though.

The combo (with Italian sausage) is where the real heart attack is at.

Wow, that's surprising. I'm not a big chocolate guy but that shake is honestly one of the best things I've ever had. At least you enjoyed the food though.

Conan and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog even did a bit on it.
Thought I'd post the video. Very funny.
