Post #1 - January 31st, 2017, 11:24 amIt's February. The weather's still crappy. Who knows when the sun will come back out. A piping hot bowl of Mish Mash soup from The Bagel will turn that frown into a smile.
Please join the LTH North Lunch Group on the 13th for some awesome tastes of tradition. As always, bring a friend.

Post #3 - January 31st, 2017, 3:39 pmOK, I'll bite...on a pastrami sandwich, maybe. And I think a Jewish deli is the perfect venue for the Bolsheviks among us that want to rise up, just not whilst digesting a coupla big matzo balls...

Post #4 - January 31st, 2017, 4:40 pmI'm in. The goal will be to just order soup, otherwise I'll want soup, sandwich, potato pancakes, cole slaw, which doesn't fit with losing 40 pounds this year.What is patriotism, but the love of good things we ate in our childhood?

Post #9 - February 12th, 2017, 2:41 pmDrive from Mundelein to Old Orchard in the middle of a work day for a bagel and soup? Sorry, no can do. Now, if you'd suggested Frontera Fresco ... actually, I've got too much work today to go anywhere. Hope you all have fun though.Last edited by Katie on February 13th, 2017, 10:26 am, edited 1 time in total."Your swimming suit matches your eyes, you hold your nose before diving, loving you has made me bananas!"

I don't think Eddie has ever cut it this close.

Post #17 - February 14th, 2017, 11:29 amGonna be hard to top the lampshade-sized cauldron of mish-mosh soup Dave ordered, evoking simultaneous feelings of amazement & revulsion among the patrons. But being the EC, you didn't care, although Eddie was shooting me sidelong glances in abject embarrassment. Joel has a picture to verify, taken with a wide-angle lens, no doubt.
On a serious note, I had never ordered The Bagel's whitefish salad and its tangy, smooth taste I would recommend to all. Conversely, the meat knish I ordered to take home--and am eating as we speak--was not at all up to par with my standard at Manny's. This one was more bread than potato based, although the meat filling is quite good. Slathering it with gravy helps.

Post #18 - February 15th, 2017, 8:23 amNote: This bowl is approximately the same size as the one that A Bite of Szechuan used to serve hot and sour soup to seven of us.
Also note that Dave left about a quart of broth behind, which could have been used as the base of a meal for an entire family.
