    according to Ted Allen on “the best thing i ever ate”, the best cinnamon rolls are found in Chicago at Ann Sather.
    this is your mission…if you choose to accept it….

    Sherwin and I were just talking today about places we had yet to try here in Chicago. Good tip!

    Joe,

    You need to eat more cake. You are looking slim! :) Sorry, the Asian mothering gene is kicking in!

    i know exactly where Ann Sather is… never had a chance to go in though. this may be the incentive we need.

    grace, the scary part is that on the scale of joe’s skinny-meter, this is actually not bad. but i agree, let’s eat more cake!!

    …ooh. that is a monster slice!

    and carrot cake might have to be next up on my apparent stress-baking to stave off paper-writing marathon, in which i eat almost nothing i make, and jon is happy all the time ;)
