Fresh Starts Gourmet Foods   Flossmoor, IL
Cheesecakes swirled with Oreo cookies, smooth flans swimming in caramel, delicate strudels filled with apples and tart cherries  --- at Fresh Starts, sweet endings like these are the specialty of the house. Just across from the train station, this shop is a favorite with commuters on their way to and from Chicago. The building shakes when trains go by, or is that the 20-quart mixer starting work on another batch of chocolate mint mousse cakes?
