My sister has CP and comes to visit me in Chicago often. We love gourmet food so stopped into City Olive, a specialty olive oil shop in the Andersonville neighborhood. Becky uses an electric wheelchair which can be hard to maneuver around smaller spaces, and we certainly don't want to "crash" into displays of expensive glass bottles of olive oil, LOL.
We weren't in the store more than a minute when an employee came to the front entrance and asked if we needed anything or wanted some food samples. The array of different oils and breads are located at the very back of the store -- she explained the different flavors available and brought the samples to us. It was like having a personal tasting and was really fun. Becky and I were treated well like any other customer and it was refreshing to visit a business that asked US what we needed instead of waiting for us to ask them for help. Actually, as I write this I realize that's a courtesy everyone should have, not just someone with a disability.
