Rainy Day and The Little Gourmet

Today is a dreary rainy day here in Chicagoland. My sweetheart worked this morning until he was completely soaked. He ran errands with me this afternoon. Well, to be honest, he ran the errands and had me stay in the car so I wouldn't get wet and chilled making my cold worse.





Since we were out and about, he took me to lunch at one of the local spots that I have been wanting to visit. The Little Gourmet is one my favorite stops during the Taste of Roselle each year. The fruit kabobs they serve at the Taste are incredible! They are one of the items on their Catering Menu.





Glenn ordered the "Little Gourmet Special" sandwich, with turkey. He let me try a bite and it was delicious! I ate a three cheese (not Italian) grilled cheese sandwich with a bowl of chicken noodle soup, the special of the day. YUM!






I admit I am not a root beer fan. Glenn, however, loves it! He declared that this was the best root beer he's ever had. I had a really good Black Cherry soft drink.







We did a little window shopping and made a list of things we would like. This olive oil is one of them! We also want this cute little oil dispenser (the black one there) it will match our dream kitchen.



For decorations, they use their products. So, everything is for sale. It is such an adorable shop. It has all these cute vignettes of ideas and products.




I love their business phone!



They are open everyday except Sunday. They also stay open until nine on Friday nights. If you are in the area you should check it out. The service was perfect. The food was wonderful. The atmosphere is warm and inviting.
