Introduction

Do you and your significant other ever find yourself in a food rut?  That is exactly what was happening with my boyfriend Brian and I.  We love going out to dinner, but we always find ourselves going to the same three or four restaurants over and over again (not to mention we always order the same thing at these three or four restaurants).  We decided, or rather I decided for him, that this year we were going to challenge ourselves to expand our dinning horizons.  We are going to try one new restaurant a month (a place that neither of us had been before).  This not only encourages us to find a new date spot once a month, but it also encourages us to try a different variety of foods we would have not tried otherwise.  I recommend this to any couple, because three months in and we are already having a lot of fun with this, and as they say variety is the spice of life!

I recently decided to turn our adventure into a restaurant review blog, so any friends or family looking for new date night ideas in the Northwest Indiana/Chicago area can get some ideas from us :)  Oh and I am obsessed with blogs and creating my own thanks to the movie Julie and Julia.  Now to see how good my memory is from our first three months of dinning experiences...
