Today I finally had a moment to get myself over to the hot spot
everyone is talking about – City Provisions.
Wow! What have I been doing for the last two months? I plan to pop
over again tomorrow…and the next day…and so on…
I found everything I could ever POSSIBLY serve at my next party right
there under one roof, all while enjoying a quick bite for lunch. It
feels so good to easily support local farms, all from a 150 mile
radius of sweet home Chicago.
The mouth watering local farm to table menu makes it tough to
choose…Farmer Nick’s Sriracha Egg Salad, served on Brioche? Old Bay
spiced Laughing Bird Shrimp Salad on a Pita Wrap? Hmmmm…
After much anticipation, I settled on a Michigan Farms Smoked Turkey
with Roth Kase Smoked Gouda, Living Waters Romaine, homemade rosemary
mayo, served on Tomato Focaccia. Divine! Delish!
These local brewed Bean & Body mini cans are the more adorable party
drink EVER. No theme is now complete without serving my favorite, the
marTEAni with perfectly retro-fitted mini straws. They blend
healthful organic green tea with organic brewed coffee, add in exotic
spices, and voila – you simply chill and serve your weekend holiday
brunch guests the most luscious, sophisticated brew of anti-oxident
properties.
Best of all – born, brewed and bottled right here in good ol’ Chi-town.
Buy, serve and drink local. Obviously.
