Teibel’s Family Restaurant in Schererville has a long tradition of getting its food supply in the region, one that stretches back throughout the family-owned restaurant’s history.
The restaurant has purchased its chickens from a Remington farm in White County for its entire existence, said Paul Teibel, the facility’s owner, adding the farm sold chickens to his great-grandfather.
Ice cream comes from Valpo Velvet in Valparaiso, including a house peppermint, and 75 percent of the restaurant’s produce is local, including cabbage from Elzinga Farms in Dyer.
“The No. 1 priority is obviously the quality for the restaurant, and keeping our quality where it needs to be,” Teibel said. “Right behind that, when you support your people, they support you back.”
