Haute Sausage just opened on Franklin & Van Buren. I had the Okra Alligator, and I can recommend it highly.
DPD.

I had the BBQ Boerewors sausage for lunch today.
Kind of sticky and messy with the sauce but the encased meat was really good, just enough fat but still surprisingly lean.
Grilled nicely and the roll was perfect size, freshness, and texture.
The curried onions were very mild they were a little overpowered by the sauce.

I also had a side of the Chutney Chips and they were outfuckingstanding.

It's obvious that these guys are just getting started but the food was made with care and you can tell they like their product.

All in all another solid lunch choice in the CBoT area. I'll be back.

Waiting for thehawk's review.

Chutney chips sound like the invention I have been waiting all my life for.

When my eyes rolled into the back of my head because they were so good I actually did think to myself that these things would definitely get the Tonk seal of approval.

Turns out, I can get them over here.

DPD.

Also on Van Buren, just east of Franklin, the Washburne Culinary school just opened a cafe a couple weeks ago. Quality eats for not a lot of scratch.

It's on Jackson just east of Franklin

That's ok. The Cherokees probably don't want to talk too much about Jackson.

Loop Lunch Guide

I've been to about half of these places and can't disagree on the choice of any of them.
Pierogi Heaven was already on my list to try this week.

I expect reviews by all the usual morans.
I'm looking at you Hawk.

Pierogi Heaven is great, just know you will occasionally get a surprise - one vegetarian friend was less-than-thrilled when she got a meat pierogi.

I have nothing but love for Cafecito.

I can (or have) positived Cafecito, Saucy Porka, Ba Le, Fontanos (my go to sub shop get the Godfather or the Blockbuster, skip the pizza,), Skrine Chops and Max's (also a jump a way from my office).  The others I am adding to my list, as they seem to know what they are talking about

Anyone ever been to Snarfburger?

There are two here, but the 3rd location is at 600 W. Chicago.

Snarf's is a sub shop here in Boulder and it's pretty damn good. Snarfburger is the new burger joint, though I've never been.

Edit: I see that Snarf's also had their sub shop in Chicago and fired all their employees by email 3 days before Christmas. So, yeah...this might not go over well.  Still, could be good.
