Brunch at Tweet

Met up today with Michelle, Meg, Josh, and Mike for brunch over at Tweet in Uptown.

A table absolutely filled with hand-made slippers. Meg created a set for every guest who requested a pair – in exchange for a donation to a local organization – Center on Halsted.
My meal, which was a pile of berry cheesecake flapjacks. Which were pretty much what you imagined they would be: “cheesecake in pancake form.” I was happy to not succomb to my normal habit of coming here, and then ordering something heartier like an omelette. The sweet breakfasts are the main pull for the Bongo Room, and I’m glad to have indulged.
A view from inside the bookstore. Meg later mentioned how much this reminded her of the Book Loft in Columbus, OH.
As a kind of early Valentine’s Day event, Michelle, Mike, Liz and I all headed over to Meg’s new apartment, where she and Josh hosted a dinner and game night.
On Sunday, Liz and I met up with Meg, Josh, Michelle, and Mike for an early Dim Sum meal at Ming Hin.
While I used my phone to take photos while overseas, Michelle and Mike had their camera with them. We all traded photos just a day or so ago, and here are a few from their bunch.
