"Breakfast has been the star at Istmo since it opened in Lakeview in July. Carlos López Muñoz, who oversaw the kitchen at Leña Brava, showcases Oaxacan comfort food like chilaquiles made with heirloom corn chips, along with spins on American classics like a heirloom blue corn pancake topped with strawberry compote and whipped cream. The restaurant just got its liquor license, so they’re now serving hibiscus and strawberry mint mimosas along with a mole carajillo. Make a reservation through OpenTable." - Sam Nelson
