Because not everyone shares your taste. Yes, it's true.

You're right; who cares about those bad parts of the city no matter what name is applied to them. Besides, all those poor people are leaving Chicago anyway.

My new thread ''why aren't there quality restaurants in Chicago's war zones?"

Now you are confused; ok, inner city no longer refers to the 'hood, so why aren't there these types of restaurants in the "city"?

Please refer to pages 1-3 of this thread for numerous theories on this question (i.e. the question that everyone but you has been discussing).

Well, everyone but you and me.

It needs more soup places too, we need them in Chicago suburbs. Panera Bread's soups are often too salty for my taste.

I ate at one once, too, when visiting a friend in a town where it was literally the only place to get food late at night. I didn't end up in a clinic, but it certainly didn't meet anyone's definition of "nice"-- Not even the people who lived in that town.
