"Opened three years before Route 66 in 1923, this Chicago diner has fueled travelers and locals alike with hearty breakfasts, offering 13 styles of pancakes and waffles and 23 omelets that range from classics to unexpected pairings like sweet Michigan apples with sharp Old English cheddar. For a sweeter option try the Belgium Malted Bacon Waffle with fresh whipped butter and maple syrup, and expect to be greeted with free doughnut holes and Milk Duds—a nod to Uncle Lou’s Greek heritage and longstanding hospitality." - Annie Brown Verdin
