McDelicacies & late-night Tenderoni

Yes, we know its legacy of scalding coffee and decay-proof French fries. But when you’re working on four hours of sleep, have a four-hour drive ahead, a radio gig, another three hours of north-central Illinois nothingness and a show on top of that, McDonald’s breakfast wins every time, in particular the dependable bacon egg and cheese biscuit. We hit up Daytrotter in Rock Island, Ill., then bolted three hours east to Darkroom Bar on Chicago Avenue, where we caught up with old friends and family. We asked the promoter, Arunas, where we could grub late night on a Sunday, he mentioned two all-night pizza joints just down the road, and we didn’t think twice. Mystery machine heads to ’za-ville, and we were so exhausted we can’t remember the name. We do remember a sizable wedge of pepperoni, cheese and crust making for a killer late-night treat.
