SCOTCH EGGS OMG
So senior year at Chicago, Alex's lovely parents came to visit for his concert in downtown Chicago where we got to hear his lovely voice. Anyway all the girls (obv) were there (obv) and we all went for dinner afterward at some place on Michigan Ave across from the Art Institute with a maroon awning but who knows the name. Ordered a bunch of delicious food I'm sure, but I remember Alex's dad was like, let's try this Scotch egg business and we ordered a bunch for the table and they were amazingness omg. Scotch egg = heart attack aka boiled egg surrounded in sausage surrounded in bread crumbs surrounded in deep-fried delicious. So I've been randomly craving these, Googled best Scotch eggs in the city and found recommendations for Wilfie & Nell in the West Village. And man, great decision.
Took us weeks of cancellations and other nonsense to finally all get together but went on Friday. Delicious beers - Ommegang White and Tetley's Cream Ale were both fantastic (who EVER thought that I'd think any beer was delicious??) and the Scotch egg = perfection. Unfortunately super tired from long week so made it a pre-1am night, but went home and slept an amazing beer-and-fried-goodness-induced sleep. Success =)
