I'm waiting to hear back from Maria, but if she's up for it, I'm leaning towards the Polish place, Podhalanka. It's at 1549 W. Division, so not too far north.
They open at 9:00, and I was wondering if y'all wanted to do breakfast, brunch, or lunch? ChiKat told me last night that she can join us if we can do this around 10:00 or so, but not if it'll be later (she has afternoon plans), but she's okay with not joining us if that time doesn't work for anyone else.
I'm open to any time, and I'll find out from Maria what works for her.
Brenda and shrift, what's best for you? Also, tommyrot, will you be able to join us as well?
I'm leaving my computer on tonight, and I'll be checking my e-mail as well as here. Let me know what you'd like to do!
10 would probably work for me - my sister's here so she'd be along too.
Subscribing as Andi and I plan to be in Madison.
We'll have to rearrange our work schedules.

For everyone in Chicagoland who would like to get up (relatively) early and join Maria for breakfast on (this) Sunday morning, we're getting together at Podhalanka for potato pancakes and pierogies (and other Polish yummies) at 10:00 a.m. at 1549 W. Division, at the corner of Division and Milwaukee.
I'm going to call in the morning and let them we'll have a minimum of five, with possibly a few more, and then check here before leaving my apartment around 8:00 to see if I need to add anymore. If I don't hear from anyone here (or at my profile addy), I look forward to seeing you at 10:00!!
soooo jealous. I used to be able to walk there from my apartment on Hermitage.
I will try to make it, but since the time change is tonight and I am rather notorious for not being a morning person, I cannot promise that I won't destroy my alarm clock when it goes off tomorrow and sleep through breakfast.
Come late if you have to, shrift! We can all be surly about the time change together. (And ready to choke a bitch if they don't bring me coffee in a timely fashion.)
I'm so chuffed I get to see people this visit. Usually, there's no time for anything outside of work obligations.
I have set my alarm for 8am! Now I just, um. Need to go to bed.
Ah. I got up at 8:00 and then went back to sleep until now. But I'll be there....
