ARMCHAIR TRAVELLER

Showtime Perhaps you can’t be in Chicago to follow in the footsteps of The Bear or travel to Thailand à la White Lotus . The next best thing? Transport yourself there, while you watch, with these satisfying, screen-inspired snacks.

We’ll likely see a fresh season of The Bear in the coming months. Its return will be sweet relief after the cliffhanger ending. While waiting for the release of the next instalment, we’ve been toying around and testing a recipe for when it does drop. Since this show is a love letter to Chicago, home to beloved deep-dish pizza and Italian beef sandwiches, it only seemed right to bring the Windy City’s most popular dishes together for the ultimate mash-up comfort food dish. Is it perfect for digging into while bingeing? Yes, chef!
