Me: I’m still interesting and cool.
Also me: gives a 5 minute description of how my kid transitioned from a sleep sack to a blanket when asked “how are you.” #nobodycares

First tweet in four years. Can I still say tweet?

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

@Iberia_en You responding to messages with vague blanket statements like this does not equate to customer service. You are criminals.

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

@Iberia_en Your customer service should be illegal. The worst I’ve ever experienced. How are you even in business??

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

@nickkokonas @CrainsChicago @smithwollensky Also, the first line of mine is not in quotes... That is not verbatim. We were just speaking positively about restaurants trying new things.

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

Thank you @CrainsChicago. #SaveRestaurants #Chicago @smithwollensky https://t.co/1ZICOsTob0

She said they were pivoting and focusing on that option. I said that’s great, whatever ways they want to get creative — safely — I’m all for.

We also spoke about farmer’s markets out of restaurants, pantries, etc. Which I am all for.

@HungryInChicago @CrainsChicago @smithwollensky Restaurants are in the business of selling food. That's what they should do, creatively. Tons of restaurants that typically haven't done carryout now do... steakhouses included.

I applaud any innovation, but who wants to co-work with strangers in a steakhouse?

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

#iHeartConcertonFOX is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. @billieeilish, best performance ever. @samsmith, no words. Thanks for making my week — much needed uplift.

Love me some dino toes 🦖🤗 #Frenchette lived up to every single thing... Those escargot eggs have forever left a mark on my brain. And a perfect steak frites albeit simple is so oddly hard to come by. An unforgettable time and I can’t wait to return. #nyc

Pretending it’s 80° instead of 20.

Went walking on the beach at my hotel in #Positano. These were the “rocks” I found. I wonder the stories they’d tell... What wall, in what house, in what city did they live? What did they see? Who looked at them every day? They live in my living room now.

My goal in life is to get to a place where I can have pizza and wine for breakfast every day.

@LinBrehmer No way, even my date thought it was you!

[Kara Lichtenstein @HungryInChicago]

@LinBrehmer I just saw some handsome guy yell my name at Hugo’s WAS THAT YOU?!
