    We want to eat out tonight and my daughter is craving grilled cheese. Any recommendations for WS restaurants with great grilled cheese?

    Eats Cafe in Westwood Village has AMAZING grilled cheese — and much better parking options than the Junction, IMO.

    Eats Cafe has an incredible turkey cranberry sandwich so I bet the grilled cheese is fantastic. The Bottlehouse in Madrona also makes a delicious one served with a side of house-made tomato jam, but that’s far away. And I’m with sbre…sometimes homemade is the best!

    MY HUSBAND (the BOB half) makes idyllic GC sandwiches. In fact, he’s making two right now.

    What kind of bread and cheese do you use for the best grilled cheese? Do you have to have tomato soup with it? ;) Curious because now I want grilled cheese. LOL!

    Campbell’s Tomato soup is always a plus! :) I guess I’m a purist..white bread for me, although I have varied the cheese. Usually medium to sharp cheese, but mix some gruyere in at times. I have used pepper jack cheese in the past on a rustic white bread I cut myself…pretty yummy..

    My favorite combination is the Como bread (Grand Central Bakery) from Thriftway with their havarti cheese. Outside of the bread must be caked with tons of butter before putting in the frying pan. Wish I had that right now …

    Costco used to sell some great bread that was perfect for grilled cheese or PBJ, but they stopped selling it and my grilled cheese days ended. But the tomato soup at Met Market is amazing with it. And I use Tillamook cheddar. I read somewhere that spreading mayo on the bread instead of butter will make the bread crisp up even better, but I’m not a mayo fan and haven’t tried it. I suppose since it’s egg-based that it would have the same effect as French toast in some regards??

    JoB, I use my Foreman all the time, but haven’t done grilled cheese in AGES.

    This Thread has been tempting me, though, and will likely be fulfilling that temptation soon.
