Fatty Friday!

Happy Friday for my fatty foods loving friends! (or am I the only one?)

Keep your eyes peeled on the Chicagoist for my post on Snappy's Shrimp House later today!

When I first headed here, I'll admit I was nervous. I'm very much not a food snob, but the combination of "seafood" in Chicago at such reasonable prices coupled with a kind of non-descript store front had me on the fence whether or not to check it out. I'm SO GLAD I DID. It's fried seafood heaven (although their shrimp cocktail is no laughing matter), which is why after my massive meal here, I should probably ward off of deep fried anything for a while.

After ordering and getting my food in a snappy speed, I had to keep telling myself, "don't snack, don't snack, don't snack, photos to be taken, photos to be taken, photos to be taken..." It was hard. Especially when I saw/smelled THESE GUYS:

First of all, I was like, "what's a hush puppy?" and "Why do Americans name things this way... hot dog, hush puppy?" All that aside, these things are golden (literally and figuratively) and taste di-vine. It gets better--it comes with homemade honey butter. DROOL.
