New Opening Alert! 🚨 Have you played shuffleboa

New Opening Alert! 🚨 Have you played shuffleboard before? @Electricshuffleusa just opened a Chicago location and we had sooo much fun competing and eating.

I recommend the sampler platter which included: Buffalo chicken quesadillas, classic fries, truffle mac & cheese bites, shishito peppers, and tempura cauliflower. We also had a truffle mushroom pizza and some pretty yummy cocktails.

Make sure you save room for dessert! We had the shuffle celebration dessert made by @milkbarstore. Such a fun evening! 📍 488 N Lasalle Dr, Chicago
