Food Digest

Bee Bim Bop is the Friday special at Evanston Grill ($6.45), and I was lucky enough to be just down the street at the lunch hour to capitalize. Used an ample amount of the spicy sauce before mashing it all together and eating it with a spoon. When it’s been a while, I crave this dish. And even though I don’t come in here often, the Korean family that runs the place always remember me. (And their son is always incredibly grumpy.)

Had to meet my editor and another reporter at an Evanston coffeeshop, and used the opportunity to eat afterward at Evanston Grill. Luckily for me, their bee bim bop is on sale Fridays. (Dude tried to charge me the full amount, but I kindly reminded him that I deserved a dollar off.)

My buddy offered to take me to lunch for my birthday in Evanston, and me being the cheap date that I am, decided to satisfy a craving for the bee bim bop from Evanston Grill. And it just so happens that the bee bim bop is the Friday special here — $6.40, as opposed to $6.95. What a deal!
