The Best Restaurants For When You Need A Plan B - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Getting a table at Kasama in Ukrainian Village—Filipino cafe-by-day, fine-dining-restaurant-by-night—has been next to impossible since they opened in 2020 (and that was before its cameo on The Bear). But instead of waiting an hour for a longanisa breakfast sandwich, consider trekking less than a mile away to Uncle Mike’s Place for some of the city’s best Filipino breakfast platters. Each comes with a cup of soothing lugaw, garlic rice, eggs, dipping vinegar, and a protein like fatty longanisa or pork tocino. By the time you're digging into a complementary side of champorado, you'll be wishing that Uncle Mike was your actual uncle." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
