After a summer of intense data collection, I'm finally settling into a routine. I'm working diligently with a collaborator to transcribe and annotate what we collected. While it's not as involved as actually running the study, it's a necessary step! However, a more settled routine has given me more time to catch up with friends.
I recently went to Old Town Social with a good friend for their Dixieland Sunday Brunch. SO DELICIOUS. During the week, Old Town Social is a southern/western inspired bar with a great menu. On Sundays, the menu gets a New Orleans kick. I ordered a french press (I splurged for that!) and the pork belly eggs benedict. My friend ordered a tea pot and the turkey pastrami hash. We also split an order of beignets. Everything was amazing, but the beignets were the stars. Fluffy delicious pillows! I'm going back just to have them again!
Not only was the food great, but the outdoor seating area was beautiful! There were plants and flowers everywhere. The weather was also pleasant, so that probably had something to do with the overall experience. If you're in the Chicago area, I highly suggest you stop here on a Sunday for a delicious brunch!
