The Bongo Room
1470 N Milwaukee
Loud and trendy (of course, it's in Wicker Park -
Lincoln Park's grungy, stoner little sister), but most amazing gourmet pancakes and waffles. Interesting mixes...lemon and raspberry hotcakes, pumpkin and vanilla pancakes, oreo and banana pancakes, and weekends only-The Chocolate Tower-a giant stack of chocolate waffles or french toast or something. Fantastic.
