At Galena's Historic Main Street

on our way from iowa back to chicago, we stopped by for dinner at galena, illinois. galena's main street at night is nice and quaint. we went inside the "galena canning company" shop. it offers a wide range of tasty condiments, sauces, dips and spreads. it's impossible to leave their shop without buying something. i bought a pesto spread there that tastes so good with toasted italian bread. it makes a fine pesto pasta too.

Verdict: 5/5

the main highlight that night was having dinner at "one eleven main." we had "galena river cheese board" as appetizer although we were already appetized at our first stop so i guess i'd call this our starter. the cheese board contained 4 types of cheese with slices of apples, a swirl of honey, almond nuts, dried melon seeds, cherries and assorted crakers. we loved the cheese board so much we cleaned it all.


since i wanted to eat light that night, i ordered for main course "one eleven signature salad" that had mixed lettuce, bleu cheese, apple slices, cherries, dried melon seeds and grilled honey chicken. it was seriously the best salad i've ever eaten. another impressive thing about this restaurant is it offers galena's local produce from cheese, fruits, wines, and products from other local shops.

Verdict: 5/5
