Restaurant Review: Tandoor Char House, via DoorDash

restaurant review: tandoor char house and doordash chicago // my bacon-wrapped life

I don’t know about you, but we are in the major-hibernation phase of winter. As in, it’s about halfway done – too far in to think snow is charming and pretty, and too soon to start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. February is for gray, mushy snow and weekends of take-out and the couch. Not that there’s anything wrong with that – in fact, I kinda love embracing the cozy vibes. And it certainly doesn’t mean we can’t eat well, amiright?!

That’s where these two faves come in: Tandoor Char House, our #1 favorite delivery Indian food in Chicago, and the service that brings it to us – DoorDash. Have you guys heard of DoorDash? It just started up in Chicago, and after trying the service out, I could not be more excited about it. They deliver meals from your favorite restaurants for a flat fee of $5.99, with no minimum order size. They’re currently in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and a ton of other cities – check out the full list here.

Restaurant Reviews: Munich, Germany

Cheese spaetzle at the Hofbräuhaus in Munich, Germany. O-M-G.

OK, I’m not going to lie. Calling this post a “restaurant review” is a wee bit of a stretch. Can I just call it “lots of pictures of German food and also humans drinking beer” and we can call it a day?

Here’s the thing about German food: it’s soooo good but also very similar everywhere you go. So I can’t be like “THIS ONE PLACE has the best bratwurst and THIS ONE PLACE has the best spaetzle” because after just a week, I am nowhere near the authority on that. So let’s just love up on in the cuisine in general and relive vacation goodness! Aaaaaaand go.

Restaurant Reviews: Best of NYC

This weekend, I took a little trip that will be forever known as “How much food can two gals eat in 36 hours in one of the best eating cities on Earth?” I think it will surprise absolutely no one that the answer is…a lot. Especially when it involves walking countless miles literally all over Manhattan and subsequently working up countless appetites. It’s my favorite way to travel!
