Speedway's Che Chori serves up Argentinian street food — fast
On your way to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, stop at Che Chori.
The big picture: The Speedway drive-thru serving up Argentinian street food.
Fun fact: Che Chori was featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" last year.
What to order: Che Chori serves traditional Argentinian sandwiches, plus burgers and pizzas, but we're going for the empanadas.
Che Chori offers 16 different flavors of empanda and half a dozen of them are vegetarian.
The empanada combo is the way to go. You get three empanadas of your choice, plus chips and a churro.
Cost: $15.
💭 My thought bubble: I expected the butternut squash to be my favorite but fell in love with the southwest veggie, stuffed full of black beans, corn and tomatoes.
The inventive caprese — stuffed with exactly what you'd expect: tomato, mozzarella and basil — was also a winner.
The guava and cream cheese is delicious but definitely more dessert than dinner.
If you go: 3124 W. 16th St.

Death Stranding and Metal Gear Solid mastermind Hideo Kojima has always wanted to make a film, but Guillermo del Toro told him not to
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. It's no secret that Hideo Kojima is a cinephile. He constantly posts his thoughts about the latest films over on social media, Metal Gear Solid cutscenes are sometimes infamous for how long and indulgent they can be, and the cast list of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is stuffed with notable Hollywood names. But the famed game director was apparently convinced to not pursue filmmaking by none other than Guillermo del Toro. Kojima said as much in the latest issue of Edge Magazine - out now - where he recalled a chat he had with Nicolas Winding Refn (director of Drive and an actor in Death Stranding 2) and Guillermo del Toro (renowned for classics like Shape of Water and Pan's Labyrinth, and, also, Heartman in Death Stranding.) "I am reevaluating my priorities about what I should do," Kojima told Edge, recalling that the meeting he had with the two filmmakers turned into a talk "about how much time we have left to create" in life. "I have always harboured an ambition to direct a film, and falling ill made me think: if I wanted to make a film, I would have to do so in my 60s, which will be so physically tough to do." That's when del Toro apparently told Kojima to rethink his film ambitions. "'You don't have to do live action films. What you're doing now [in games] is like a live-action film. Don't do this old-media thing of going into filmmaking – just do what you've been doing.'" "But I'm always thinking about the next ten years," Kojima added. "Because this is comparatively a small company, unlike other corporations in this industry like Sega or Nintendo, I must tell the staff where we are headed in the next ten years." Kojima will at least partially be involved in A24's upcoming Death Stranding film, and his odd horror game OD also has a stacked list of Hollywood collaborators, including Jordan Peele, so I wouldn't feel too sorry for the guy. Hideo Kojima doesn't want more than 150 people working on games like Death Stranding 2 thanks to a sheep herding tip from Mad Max director George Miller

Jennifer Lopez Looks Like an Entirely Different Person in Her Blondest Hair Ever
Jennifer Lopez has long been the queen of highlights. I bet if you polled colorists to find out which celebrity photo they're shown the most when a client wants honey-blonde balayage, J. Lo comes out on top. She truly is the gold standard—no pun intended—and she rarely strays far from her bronde base, never going too far into the decidedly brunette or blonde zones. But with the new Kiss of the Spider Woman trailer officially dropped, we're seeing Lopez in a whole new light. A whole new light hair color, that is. A big day for movie musical trailers, June 5 welcomed a look at not only Wicked: For Good, but another highly anticipated musical-theater blockbuster hitting theaters this fall: Kiss of the Spider Woman. Lopez plays Ingrid Luna, aka Aurora, aka the Spider Woman, a movie star about whom a gay Argentinian prisoner fantasizes. Although the film is set in the early 1980s, one look at the trailer tells you that her character is an Old Hollywood starlet. The rivetingly edited clips show Lopez in nearly platinum blonde Veronica Lake-style waves and curled updos—a look we've never seen on the multi-hyphenate before. The red lips and matching nails complete the classic moment. And just when we thought we couldn't be more surprised by a major hair departure, Lopez changes it up again in the trailer with a black flapper-style bob with spiky bangs—a major contrast from the soft blonde, but just as glamorous. You can watch the entire official trailer—and take notes for your gorgeous 2025 Halloween costume—right here: More celebrity beauty news: It Doesn't Matter If the Kardashians Are Honest About Their Plastic Surgery Megan Thee Stallion Shared All the Summer Nail Art Inspo You'll Ever Need Dua Lipa's Simple Nail Art Is the Perfect Summer Manicure Now Nicole Kidman break down her most iconic looks: Follow Allure on Instagram and TikTok, or subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date on all things beauty.

Watch: Jennifer Lopez sings in 'Kiss of the Spider Woman'

Photo by James Atoa/UPI | License Photo June 5 (UPI) -- Jennifer Lopez is teasing her upcoming musical film Kiss of the Spider Woman. The movie, which arrives in theaters Oct. 10 after premiering at the Sundance Film Festival in January, stars Lopez as Ingrid Luna. Luna and the fictitious musical she stars in is the object of Luis Molina's (Tonatih) heart. Molina and Valentin, who is portrayed by Diego Luna, are being held in Argentinian prison and the musical helps the pair bond. The trailer released Thursday shows Lopez in red lipstick singing and dancing after dragging on a cigarette. Bill Condon, widely known for his work on such titles as Dreamgirls and Beauty and the Beast, directs from a script he wrote. Lopez previously said Condon "made my dream come true," noting she was drawn to show business because of her love for musicals. The upcoming movie is the latest adaptation of Manuel Puig's book, which previously inspired a 1985 film and 1993 Broadway musical.
