A Hearty Chicago Breakfast
user ratingWhen Lisa Santos opened Southport Grocery and Café in Chicago’s trendy Wrigleyville in 2003, she did not want to serve breakfast. The CPA turned specialty food retailer/chef had enough to do without slinging pancakes at 8 in the morning.
That changed. Breakfast is now big business at her 36-seat café, which serves 350 orders of Bread Pudding Pancakes with Cinnamon Sugar Butter and Vanilla Custard Sauce every week. See recipe below.—Ron Tanner
