Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
Some may associate picnics with paper plates and egg salad but there's more to the outdoor dining arts than that. A picnic in the park can be a truly gourmet experience that would delight even the most selective epicurean, all you need is the right hardware.
If there's a gourmand in your life who's difficult to please, consider taking them out for some tasty tidbits al fresco with a wonderful picnic backpack for two. With real glasses, cutlery and china no one would mistake this for an ordinary picnic, or your recipient for an ordinary picnicker. This gift is a cut above in every way, just like them.
Why we love it:
It's the most polite way we've ever found to invite yourself over for dinner and it's almost guaranteed to get you asked back a second time.
Who we'd give it to:
Gourmets, epicureans, chefs, cooks, and anyone who knows how to order from a deli. Also one of our favorite gifts for couples.
