I'm a vegetarian, so often times, when I'm out to eat, I'll be so happy when I see that a grilled cheese sandwich is on the menu. What's extra cool is that as an adult, there are some great gourmet grilled cheese sandwich options. It's almost as if restaurants like to have fun and get creative with their grilled cheese offerings and make them very unique. I love it, because I never know what I'm really going to get when I order a grilled cheese sandwich.
