The Gourmet Tote is the patent pending new upscale insulated food, wine and casserole carrier with a convertible and removable shelving unit for carrying multiple casseroles, prepared dishes, appetizers and beverages in separate compartments. With its patent pending design, it allows you to bring the whole meal (wine, main course and dessert) to dinners and picnics without stacking items. The Gourmet Tote can be used for dinner parties, potlucks, tailgate parties, supper clubs, picnics and outdoor concerts. Its thermal lining (the same fabric used in pizza delivery bags) will keep hot items hot and cold items cold. It also features a zippered utensil holder that is removable and see-through for ease of use and clean up, side pockets for personal accessories and rubber stoppers on the bottom so contents dont shift in travel. The tote carries and looks like a top of the line briefcase or carry-on suitcase.

The Gourmet Tote product line is available at the following locations: The Wine Enthusiast Catalog, International Wine Accessories Catalog, HSN-Improvements Catalog, Grill Lovers Catalog, Sur La Table, www.ChefsResource.com, wwwComfortHouse.com, Chefs Catalog online, www.GourmetTote.com, and at specialty kitchen, wine and house wares stores around the country and Canada.
