Congratulates Renee Bradford, President and CEO of C'est Si Bon! Ltd. in Chicago, on 20 years of successful business operations.

Recognizes Bradford's decision to leave her corporate career in December 1990 to launch a catering and gift basket business in the Hyde Park neighborhood, drawing on her MBA from Columbia University.

Notes that C'est Si Bon! at 643 East 47th Street specializes in Cajun and American cuisine, including signature dishes such as Southern Comfort Chicken, Collard Greens in a Tomato Cup, and Sweet Potato Cheesecake.

Highlights the business's participation in the Taste of Chicago event, where Bradford introduced specialty items including Collard Green Egg Rolls, Sweet Potato Biscuits, and Cajun Meatballs.

Directs that a suitable copy of the resolution be presented to Bradford as a symbol of the House's respect and esteem.
