.Sunday morning I toke the light rail to Evanston
.... I had a "Southern Sampler" for lunch, a variety of tasty stews
and red beans over a layer of rice, for 10.95 (+ drink, taxes and tip).</span></em><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p>

Inside the waiter confirmed the "French Fried Onions" are standing
for a "onion brick". So I ondered a full one.</span></em></p>

pressed in the form: it really had flat faced</span></p>

with sweeter onions or with sugar added, which eventually explains it being
darker caramelized and the sugar giving it flat hard faces. It was a real
"brick" as one uses in construcion.</span></p>
