Taste your way through La Grange's outdoor art exhibit.

Art lovers and their pups are invited to explore the tastes of La Grange in a whole new way as they stroll a whimsical outdoor art exhibit on Saturday, June 26th from 12pm to 5pm.

Nine participating restaurants are offering unique bites-to-go as part of an art and dining adventure called the La Grange Snack & Stroll. The food sampling tour is held in conjunction with an annual outdoor summer art exhibit organized by the La Grange Business Association. This year's theme features dozens of hand-painted wooden dog houses and lounge chairs that are displayed on the sidewalks in front of local businesses.

Customers are invited to follow a walking map of the art display and snack on savory bites from local eateries as they stroll. Diverse menu items are priced from $5 to $8 and can accommodate the tastes of everyone in the family. Selections range from dates wrapped in bacon or leg of lamb skewer to hot dogs with tator tots or tangy cheese curds. Even Fido can indulge in a dog-friendly peanut butter molasses cookie available at TATES Ice Cream Shop.
