I know I haven't updated in FOREVER, but things have just been crazy. It's not that I don't have time; I just don't feel like making the time to update.

Anyway, I've been to Portillo's twice now, once with my parents, brother, and uncle and aunt when they were helping me move into Riverside and a second time with my boyfriend, Blake. The first time I wasn't a huge fan of the salad my mom and I shared, but I did like the hot dog, so I was determined to go back and try non-salad menu items, which is exactly what I did. The place is kinda wacky with random things on the walls and a fun, family-friendly atmosphere. You can order salads, hot dogs, interesting desserts like chocolate cake milkshakes, etc. It kinda reminds me of a Fuddruckers. Here's what Blake and I ate (YUMM!!! I'd get both again) a few weeks ago (Blake got a chili dog and I got their polish without mustard):
