The Scene
Young families wake early to score one of the limited seats available at this cheerful, but tiny restaurant in Ravenswood. Blond wood tables for two and four take up most of the one-room, exposed-brick space featuring a long banquette lining the right wall and small juice bar in the back. Acrylic paintings, a few photos, mirrors and kitschy wooden eggs that hang on invisible strings from the ceiling add to the casual mood.

The Food
Chef Jon Cignarale cooks up simple, tasty breakfast and lunch dishes with a few twists. Sweet blackberries are spooned generously atop Emily's Dream pancakes with just the right amount of butter, while apple flapjacks are turned upside down and baked for extra thickness. The fluffy, not overly salty Retro omelet--loaded with bits of ham, green onions and Swiss cheese--arrives with a side of pan-fried country potatoes and toast. Lunch favors salads, burgers and sandwiches.
