Fixin' To Eat

If you’ve been looking for a way to make dinnertime delicious and easy, then you’ve come to the right place! Fixin’ To Eat is a meal-assembly kitchen (that’s meal-prep nowadays). Our mission is to eliminate your “What’s For Dinner?” debacle by providing freezer-friendly dinner kits that you cook at home. How are we different than the subscription services out there? Our meal kits come fully prepped so that the only thing you need at home is access to cooking equipment, a pan or two and some cooking utensils. You won’t be chopping, dicing or zesting a thing at home so the cleanup is minimal. Our meal kits can stay frozen for weeks and sometimes up to months, so you’re never “on the line” to cook something before it goes bad. Essentially, we offer a local service that does everything for you up to the point of actual cooking. Say goodbye to hours of planning, shopping and prepping! We offer pickup and delivery, so if you’ve been relying on take-out and dinner delivery services, give your pocketbook a break and see how our concept will save you money. Welcome to the Fixin’ To Eat Family! [read more]

Nothing Bundt Cakes

To find the perfect recipe, you first need the perfect ingredients. And that's what our founders Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz were for each other. In 1997, they joined forces, or better yet kitchens, to help make cakes to entertain their friends. The cakes they made were delicious, unlike anything anyone had tasted. As a result, their friends and family asked them to entertain more and more. They quickly realized this side project of theirs could be something more. There was a gap in the world for delicious cakes, readily available, that didn't compromise on their ingredients. Fresh eggs, real butter, and real cream cheese; nothing was too good to achieve perfection. And perfection are those decadent, slowly melting bites, we all know and love. Flash forward and the Nothing Bundt Cakes brand has grown nationwide. Built on Dena and Debbie's vision, each bakery still has the warmth and nostalgia of its home-kitchen roots, but they also take a modern approach for the world today. [read more]

Lou was known for his fun-loving character as well as making Chicago's best pizza. Loyal patrons lined the streets on opening day for a taste of his delicious deep dish creations.
