Many of us really miss going out to eat - for the food and the in-person conversation with family and friends. While Gov. J.B. Pritzker's stay-at-home order during the coronavirus pandemic doesn't allow for eating in restaurants, many eateries are still offering delivery, carry out or curbside pickup. Here are a few creative deals; check back next week for more.

Bien Trucha Group: The restaurant group has added an assortment of alcoholic beverages to its to-go orders. A toda madre in Glen Ellyn is now offering margarita and sangria liters ($35, makes approximately six on the rocks) and Tecates ($3 each or $15 for a six-pack); Bien Trucha in Geneva is selling margarita kits ($55, makes approximately 16 margaritas on the rocks) and Tecates; and Quiubo in Naperville is offering Tecates.
