What is Tall Grass Fed Beef and why is it a good choice for 2Toots Train Whistle Grill and you?

 "We searched at length to find the perfect preservative free, gluten free hot dog that had no nitrates or nitrites and just as importantly satisfied the discerning tastes of our younger patrons.  Tallgrass Beef Company more than fulfills that need and in addition, offers many other benefits for our customers and their families.  Tallgrass Beef company cattle have significant higher levels of omega-3 essential fatty acids.  It contains less saturated fat, calories and cholesterol." says Dale Eisenberg, co-owner of 2Toots Train Whistle Grill. "We’re excited to partner with Bill Kurtis, of CBS Channel 2 fame and his company.   "It’s our intention and goal to remain focused on providing great family fun while making more natural and organic food options available."

 

When Sandy Brown, Glen Ellyn resident was told about 2Toots Train Whistle Grill’s switch she said "Our next family outing will be to 2Toots. It is great to balance fun with better choices at mealtime."

 2Toots Train Whistle Grill is located in Downtown Glen Ellyn at Main and Crescent Street, just north of the railroad tracks.  The restaurant is open Monday-Saturday 11am-8pm and Sunday 11-7pm. Kids, parents and grandparents alike are enthralled when the meal they ordered arrives on Lionel electric powered trains.  All of the seating is on the tracks so there are no unhappy engineers. Birthdays are something special when the celebratory cupcake comes out pulled by the train with the birthday song playing throughout the restaurant.

 2Toots Train Whistle Grill has several other Chicago area locations planned and will soon be opening in downtown Bartlett, directly across from the Metra train station.  Please visit 2toots.com for more details.
