665309 Fri Nov 06 16:54:15 -0800 2009 0 7 Chicago Area 0 5162332 My husband and I are going on a culinary adventure to Chicago next weekend. Most of our meals are set - Alinea for dinner, Frontera for brunch/lunch, and Graham Elliot for dinner. I still need a quick lunch spot near our hotel for the day we arrive. We'll be taking the rail into town (blue/pink). Is there a hot dog joint nearby? I figure we'll need something light in order to be ready for Alinea that night! Then I've heard great things about the Bongo Room for breakfast but I fear that will be too much before a lunch at Frontera. Which Bongo Room location would be the closest and easiest for us to get to? And lastly, what's the best cupcake place that's closeby. I know that's relative and I also know I will get 15 different answers as to which is the best. Thanks in advance. Fri Nov 06 16:54:15 -0800 2009 271719 de5181
