In which Carmy Googles the definition of fun and Sydney takes us on a tour of some of Chicago’s best spots.
’s? Granted, that’s not hard with Chicago, which has not just some of the best fine dining in the whole country but also some of the best street staples, counter classics, and everyday fare. That’s made pretty clear in “Sundae,” which is not just a great episode of TV but also a showcase for some of the city’s most down-home and delicious eateries.
The episode’s first big meal comes in the form of Carmy’s opening monologue, which is delivered via his check-in at group therapy. As he explains, after Googling the definition of, he has spent some time mulling over “what provides amusement or enjoyment” in his life — not just recently but when he was a kid. Back then, he says, anything that he thought could be fun got kind of fucked thanks to his overzealous and bumbling family, who often made promises they weren’t able to keep.
If this season is about Carmy finding his joy, that could happen through the introduction of Claire, who seems to be shaking him out of his comfort zone. First of all, she calls him out on giving her a fake number, telling him that he has clearly forgotten that she knows both his whole family and the Faks. She asked Neil for his number, and Neil — who calls himself Carmy’s best friend — provided it.
In order to help Claire, Carmy had to blow off a day of tasting and foodie adventure with Sydney. It seems like it was sort of a spontaneously generated idea, so you can’t blame him too much for thinking it was ditchable, but Sydney takes it especially hard in the wake of her conversations with her dad and basically every Chicago chef, restaurant owner, and front-of-house staffer she meets on her trek.
