This South Loop sibling to the popular Wicker Park spot features the same breakfast and lunch fare as the original. Our faves include breakfast burrito (cilantro-jalapeno tortilla filled with guacamole and scrambled eggs) and the Oreo cookie flapjacks remain on the menu. Made-to-order eggs and omelets are always available for the breakfast traditionalist. Lunch offers sandwiches like maple and mustard roasted pork loin and a crab club.
