I visited Philly recently, and my hosts took me to Woodrows for the philly cheesesteak, and it was bonkos good! house-made "truffle whiz" cheese sauce was gooey and the steak and onions was more flavor than I was expecting. Perfect hangover food, but I'm sure would be great without the hangover (better even, maybe)

I know going to a steakhouse is cheesy--- and I don’t even eat steak but Old Homestead put that wooooork in when they formulated that garlic bread. I’ve never had anything like it. It’s like a parmesan fondue with bricks of garlic bread stacked up like Manga, it is one of the best appetizers I’ve ever had. The crab cakes are great too, a nice jumbo lump crab without all that filler and a beautiful aioli.

last time i went to chicago my husband and we got breakfast and this little spot in the Ukrainian Village and he got the best creamy dill slow scrambled eggs and i got the best pierogis ever. Please hunt this place down if it’s still open, we still think about this meal 6 years later!!
I also am a big hot dog fan but my husband is a vegetarian so we loved that fatso’s last stand had stuff for both of us. Also pizzeria due brought back childhood memories of how uno’s tasted when i was a child. idk if it’s considered a tourist trap but again, still thinkin bout that big ol sloppy pie!!

I know slavoj zizek is a fucking loser now, but his movie A Pervert's Guide to Ideology was the first piece of media that began to rub away the sheen/shellac of pretense that the world operates smoothly. It was my first time really engaging with a Marxian analysis and sitting with it. I was in high school, and it set me up to care about critical theory. From this movie, I'd read Mark Fisher's really quick book "Capitalist Realism: is there no alternative?" Fisher grounds a lot of his theory in culture/media in a very similar way to Zizek.
After that, I'd follow recommendations made by others in the thread!
