I don’t order out a ton of fast food anymore, I’m 64 years old and that’s not wise of me to be doing. I’ve been holed up in a physical rehab facility for the past four plus months trying to rehab my legs after a pretty big stair fall. The food provided within this facility is abysmal and so tonight when I could bear to eat what they were serving I had a hankering for Portillo’s. I wanted a jumbo hotdog for my dinner and something else for later, one of their jumbo tamales.
Growing up as a kid in a small town and playing Little League baseball, the recreation association held a yearly all-star tournament and it was pretty special when my tea wasn’t playing and I’d show up on my bicycle to watch the others, and I could buy a Tamale for just 15 cents. Oh how I loved them/
My hotdog tonight was outstanding, everything on it but Onions and Peppers. My Tamale, however, was otherworldly. It tasted exactly as I remember them tasting more than 50 years ago, but much bigger and more grand. They cost a bit more than 15 cents but are well worth the asking price. I have a feeling I will be dining upon them once again very soon. Thanks Portillo’s they were outrageously great. And to the delivery driver from Door Dash, thank-you. This young man had it here in a flash and even brought it up to my room. Give that man a raise!

The order was not sealed closed. Bag was open and only connected at the tip of handles.
