It looks like Mayor Daley has upped the ante with a second mayoral bet for this year's playoffs, this time with Mayor Chuck Reed of the City of San Jose.

As reported by the San Jose Mercury News, here's what's at stake --

San Jose

• waffles (Eggo -- really?!)
• burritos? (La Victoria Taqueria)
• meat? (Chiaramonte's Deli & Sausages)
• confections (Schurra's Candy, Greenlee's Bakery and Shuei-Do Manju Shop)
• booze (Joseph George Wines and Gordon Biersch Brewing Co.)

Chicago

Part 1 (via San Jose Mercury News)

• barbecue sauce (Robinson's Ribs)
• hot dogs and Polish sausages (Vienna Beef)
  
• tortillas and chips (Azteca Foods)
• large cheesecake (Eli's Cheesecake)
• candy (Ferrara Pan Candy)
• fortune cookies (Golden Dragon Fortune Cookies)
• pale ale and golden ale (Half Acre Brewery)

Part 2 (via Chicago Tribune)

• lamb chops and steaks (Harry Carray's)
• Italian beef (Al's Beef)
• burgers (Billy Goat Tavern)
• fried catfish, turkey legs and barbecued turkey tips (BJ's Market)

(also included is a floral arrangement from Illinois Specialty Cut Flowers, I hope nobody tries to eat that)

A fair bet?  We'll let your eye/tongue/tummy test decide.

Note:  These lists are probably incomplete... let me know if I left anything out.

Vancouver

Also, since I mistakenly reported on last year's bet with Vancouver mayor Gregor Robinson in my other post, in case you were wondering -- payment is on its way!  According to Jesse Rogers, the food will be donated to the Chicago Food Depository.

In case you didn't catch what was in this year's care package from our friends up in BC:

• traditional Filipino polvoron shortbread cookies and boat tarts (Goldilocks Bakeshop)
• wild smoked salmon (British Columbia)
• Thai yellow curry w/chicken and pad thai (Thai Away Home)
• saag and paneer and Punjabi daal (Vij's Rangoli)
• apple dumplings (New Town Chinese Bakery)
• baklava (Kalamata Greek Taverna)
• Italissima balsamic dressing (Bosa Foods)

Of course, everybody knows that Chicago denizens LOVE food.  So, keep it coming, boys!
