There were four of us and we bought a huge -- HUGE -- box of stuff. There must have been 10-12 different things in there, plus a dozen macarons. The only one thing we liked was the tarte cacahuète. I must give them a few more tries.<br /><br />Nice tour of Chicago once again, Mark. Makes me feel even more grateful to live in such a wonderful food city.
