Banana, White Chocolate & Macadamia Nut Pancakes :: Bongo Room, Wicker Park, Chicago
Pumpkin-Carrot Cheesecake Flapjacks :: Bongo Room, Wicker Park, Chicago
On Monday John and I were talking about restaurants in Wicker Park and I confessed that I’ve never been to Bongo Room because I’m not patient enough to wait in the long brunch lines that form every weekend. He sent me this photo of the Banana, White Chocolate & Macadamia Nut Pancakes he had last weekend and told me to run (RUN!) to Bongo Room.
Yesterday my dad came down for the day and we went to Bongo Room for breakfast at lunch time. There was no waiting. I got exactly what John recommended (graham cracker crusted banana pancakes topped with warm maple creme sauce and white chocolate creme anglaise) and my dad had Pumpkin-Carrot Cheesecake Flapjacks (graham cracker crusted pancakes topped with warm vanilla bean cream sauce and cinnamon & suger creme anglaise). It was like having 2 huge, decadent, delicious plates of dessert for lunch. Yum!
