This small -- seating for 36 -- but cute Ravenswood storefront features exposed brick with bright, perky hues and cutesy faux egg accents. Chef-owner Jon Cignarale, who clocked time in the kitchens at M.Henry, Tweet and Karyn's Cooked (among others), has created a menu full of inspired takes of breakfast faves like banana-spiked French toast, upside down apple pancakes and "frazzled " eggs with bologna (yes, bologna) with herbs and a spicy maple mustard. Lunch moves into salads and burgers, plus sandwiches like the Vietnamese pate sandwich and muffalatta. The Sunday brunch menu changes weekly; look for options like chocolate raspberry French toast and lemon poppy seed pancakes.
