This morning, we went to Meli Cafe & Juice Bar, had one of the best breakfasts ever, and I'm debating going back tomorrow. They had so many awesome things on the menu that if I lived in Chicago, I would be a loyal regular.
They make their own marmalades... I loved both the strawberry and apricot, and their whipped honey butter is even better. It's ultra light with a touch of honey and you could seriously eat this in spoonfuls.

The price is right and the food is great here. They offer healthy veggie or sweet crepes, sandwiches, and a huge selection of homemade soups. They also have a full, freshly squeezed juice bar. |

I haven't been able to find a breakfast restaurant in Chicago that really satisfies me with out upsetting my stomach. This restaurant always has the BEST food. Grits (not lumpy or dry or runny, just right), biscuits (never hard and always perfectly grilled, yes I said grilled), EGGS (not swimming in oil never bitter or over/under cooked), Gravy (it's just perfect), breakfast burritos (made with Charrizo, sorry about the spelling). It's just fantastic, my Dad took me there for the first time in January. It's our tradition to go out for breakfast every weekend and he took me there. I was skeptical because it wasn't in the neighborhood (I live in Bucktown) but it was well worth the hop skip and jump. Tomorrow take your family there for a quiet and wonderful breakfast. Take North Ave. West to Hamlin then go left, go south on Hamlin till you hit Grand then go right, drive a couple blocks and your there! I think they serve Dinner too! |
