For dinner tonight, I decided to support one of my favorite local restaurants - @bigguyssausage_ The meal included Chicken Creole Pasta, Wedge Salad, Gumbo, Shrimp, and for dessert (not pictured here) Bananas Foster Bread Pudding. I paired with a 2017 “La Smilla” Barbera D’Asti DOCG. I bought the 1/2 size family meal, so I have enough for one more serving of salad but at least two or three of everything else. What a deal! @whyberwyn #nothinglikeasuburb #berwynillinois #berwyn #ChicagoInsiders #singledining #diningalone #datingmyself #diningsolo #solodining #tableforone #tableforoneplease #takingcareofme #grateful #lifeisgood #alonebutnotlonely #quarantine (at Berwyn, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA1MAyFl1at/?igshid=fxwq5nbglvoo

Tonight, I chose curbside pickup from one of my favorite restaurants - @autremondecafe. Green Salad with Feta, Oregano and Vinaigrette; Braised Berkshire Pork, Wild Mushroom Risotto; Dessert of Cookies and Berries. I paired the meal with a 2017 Chardonnay from Barra of Mendocino. The meal also came with a Mezze Platter with assorted Mediterranean Dips which will be part of tomorrow's lunch. @whyberwyn #nothinglikeasuburb #berwynillinois #berwyn #ChicagoInsiders #singledining #diningalone #datingmyself #diningsolo #solodining #tableforone #tableforoneplease #takingcareofme #grateful #lifeisgood #alonebutnotlonely (at Berwyn, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CARGcJYg1hH/?igshid=1myvz046jqvsf

I decided to support one of my favorite restaurants, fourteensixteen in LaGrange, by ordering for curbside pick up. There were two meals, so I will have the second one tomorrow night, featuring a chicken entree. For tonight, it was Smoked Trout appetizer, sides of Roasted Asparagus and Southern-Style Coleslaw, an entrée of Beef Wellington-Prime Striploin (Puff Pastry, Red Wine Reduction), and for dessert a Salted Candy Bar (Shortbread Cookie, Whipped Cream, Seasonal Berries). I bought a bottle of wine from the restaurant to go with the meal, a 2018 La Capranera Aglianico. #singledining #diningalone #datingmyself #diningsolo #solodining #tableforone #tableforoneplease #takingcareofme #grateful #lifeisgood #alonebutnotlonely #quarantine #takeout @1416lagrange (at Berwyn, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-QUNJqBZZr/?igshid=1mm9mabjy1qwq
