Well hello there – my name is Bill Peeler and I’m a Southerner living in Chicago.
I grew up in North Carolina, lived in Texas for many years and now I’m here in the Windy City.
I love all things cooking and eating. I wish I was as good at cooking as I am eating. Chicago is known for it’s food – and I want to eat at every restaurant and I want to eat there right now.
Bear with me as I chronicle my attempts at cooking various and sundry dishes, as well as giving poorly-written-yet-accurately-detailed reviews of all the restaurants I hit here in the city.
This blog is still trying to find its place. Shoot me an email and lemme know what you think.
Thanks for stopping by!


You rock.
Hello there – I like the blog! I’m a food-loving midwesterner living in the south, so I can relate in a backwards sort of way. I just started a blog myself on meal planning and maintaining a budget while eating well, so I’ve been poking around for fun food blogs and ideas and stumbled on your site.
What’s your favorite restaurant in Chicago so far?
Hey there – I have several favorite restaurants here. I love Indie Cafe for their sushi and Thai and I’m also a big fan of Spacca Napoli – a smaller pizza place with real authentic napolean pizza. I love Chicago-style pizza, but this place is A-Ma-Zing. I will look your blog up now!
Bill – I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award, the Very Inspiring Blogger Award and the Sunshine Award. You know why? Because I like you
One question, have you gained any weight since you started blogging? I’m looking to blame the fact that I have to cook delicious meals as a reason for my extra lbs.
