An Ooey Gooey lunch at The Cheesy Pickup in Downtown Orillia
21 Jan 2019
Disclosure: Our meal was covered by Ontario’s Lake Country. All opinions are my own.
Do you love grilled cheese? If you do, then you have got to try The Cheesy Pickup in Orillia!
Grilled sandwiches are comfort food. The girls and I love having them for lunch on the weekends. We can sit back and watch TV together while eating.
Fine and causal dining is great and all, but what is also great is when you find a hidden gem that serves up food that reminds you of sitting in your living room while eating your favourite sandwich. Except, The Cheesy Pickup kicks it up a notch or two with their awesome selection of grilled cheese sandwiches.
Our Lunch
Rachel had the “Up Your Kilt” grilled cheese sandwich, with a side of homemade Mac & Cheese.
That is one big pickle!
Lauren had the “Do You Come Here Often?” grilled cheese sandwich, with aside of baked beans.
And I had the “All Hail Grilled Cheeser!” sandwich, with aside of baked beans.
Very cheesy!
Craig is not a big cheese eater, so he had a Caesar salad with a side of peameal bacon and a pickle.
