: Took the Northwestern crew out to the Berghoff tonight. Still the best damned creamed spinach anywhere.

    Still the best damned creamed spinach anywhere.
    Is competition that fierce? I’ve never seen it on a menu in any restaurant. But maybe I’m not going to the right restaurants.

    I make a pretty good creamed spinach myself. I came up with it to make it appeal to the kids more. I’ll test it on my god-son this summer.

    Recipes welcome — I’d like to try it and put it on my gastroblog. (I always loved spinach as a little girl, straight out of the can, because I had a huge crush on Popeye. Weird kid.)

    Don’t forget those brats, Jeff. I doubt I’ll ever taste their like again, unless I move back to Chicago some day, and the chances of that are somewhere between zero and none.

    Bill: I had to read your comment three times to figure it out. At first, I thought you ate children. Then I thought you were calling the wonderful student ill-mannered. Then I put the word in italics and said, oh, of course, brats, bratwursts, wursts, sausages, duh. Yes, I debated having the sausage plate but instead had a schnitzel because it came with the creamed spinach. Now you’re giving me regrets.

    There is nothing I like about the term “creamed spinich.”
    I’ll go for some brats, though…

    I went to Chicago once in college and we ate at Berghoff. I remember it as one of the best meals of my life.
