I am something of a grilled cheese connoisseur. After a long day at work, it's my go-to dinner - and I make a mean one (using an old Sunbeam electric frying pan that belonged to my grandmother before I was born). So I was eager to see what the Cheese Melt Cafe had to offer - and if they could live up to my homemade standards. I stopped there yesterday (on a very rare trip to West Towne) and got a cheddar with bacon on rye to go.
I'll just get right to it - YUM. Perfect proportions of each ingredient, perfectly melted, perfectly toasted. I didn't check out their other offerings, but a patron ahead of me got an order of fries and they looked so good, I was envious.
The only thing that bums me out is that I have to negotiate an always-packed mall parking lot to get to the Cheese Melt Cafe - or I'd be more likely to make it a regular haunt.
