  1. The Bristol

    <strong>The Bristol</strong>.<strong> </strong>Considering how deafening this restaurant is during evening service, brunching at Chris Pandel's Bucktown restaurant is practically like going to church. Pandel's brunch menu is pretty worship-worthy at that, especially if you like your brunch meal rich and nurturing with the occasional peppery jolt. That's how I feel about his black pepper and maple sage sausages, soft beauties available as a side dish ($4) or as part of the biscuits and gravy entree ($12). The hangover breakfast ($13), an immense bowl of pork broth with noodles, beef tongue and an outrageously good shrimp cake, will cure what ails you, and the lively braised pork chilaquiles ($12) is the best version of this dish I've ever had.

  2. Bring on brunch

    Though Sunday brunch is a year-round option, warm and sunny weather is what brings out the crowds. I can attest to that, having spent most of the last 10 fairly miserable (weatherwise) weekends hitting one brunch after another; I don't think I found a single crowded dining room during all of February and March (Easter excepted), and reservations certainly were no problem. Brunch-friendly temperatures will be with us soon enough, and when they arrive, here are a few brunch spots, old and new, that will be worth checking out. Better still, visit them now, when tables are still easy to secure (Mother's Day excepted).

  6. Carbo-loading

    As I exited Balena a week or so ago, a passing stranger stopped me.
    As I exited Balena a week or so ago, a passing stranger stopped me. "Good restaurant?" he asked, jerking his head toward the door. I nodded enthusiastically. "Great pizzas," I said. And in that split-second, I fear I gave Balena, which opened two...

  7. Against the grain

    Greg Hall wants you to drink more cider. He's already persuaded you to drink more beer &#8212; or rather, as brewmaster/marketing genius/foodie gadfly of Goose Island Beer Co. for more than a decade, he's persuaded you to drink smarter beer, craftier beer, paired with smart food. But a year ago he left Goose Island, and now it's cider.

  8. Summer eating list

    I don't know if teachers still do this, but at the end of each school year, I was handed a summer reading list, a sheet of required and optional books that would prepare students for the coming school year. (I still owe a measure of revenge to the teacher who saddled me with "Lord Jim.")
