while in chicago, irv planned an entire day of eats + activities in the city :) i happily sat back and did nothing but enjoy the day he had planned. oh, and i'll have to admit, the anticipation of not knowing where we were going to go next definitely added to the excitement of the whole day.
toast was such an adorable little breakfast joint! i don't know why i haven't been frequenting this place. i had some of the best scrambled eggs ever, seriously.
pesto scramble. scrambled eggs w/ tomato & gruyere w/ fresh house pesto. served w/ house potatoes.
pancake orgy. one of each: blueberry, banana pecan & lemon poppy seed, topped w/ house berry granola, vanilla yogurt, fresh fruit & drizzled w/ honey.
hot doug's was definitely an experience for me. i'm not very big on hot dogs with toppings. i'm usually content with a plain bun or sometimes a little ranch dressing is perfect. but this time i tried a veggie dog with everything on it.
the pete shelley vegetarian dog.
and finally, bleeding heart bakery for dessert. it's such a colorful & fun place to sit and enjoy some delish baked goods. my favorite things we ate there were the lemon bar & brownie that we ended up buying just as we were leaving, to take home as a snack.
veruca salt {salted caramel in vanilla} cupcake.
definitely wish i was capable of eating more on days like these! there are just too many amazing things to eat & not enough room in my stomach :)
