One word: De-lightful!
Hazel's opened about a month ago (first week in December) and we've been there twice...with plans to go back quite frequently. The restaurant is owned and managed by two brother's from Alexandria (my hometown) that have the restaurant business in their blood. These boys were born for this line of work - and it shows. Hazel's is located on 29th & Johnson in northeast. Here is their website: http://www.hazelsnortheast.com/home.html - they can also be found on Facebook - be sure to become a fan!
The restaurant is cleanly decorated and cozy, with artwork on the wall by famous people - like our high school friend Macaille!
Luke and I visited the second day they were open. They don't yet have a GF menu, but are working on putting one together. They were accommodating, and helped me to find something GF on the dinner menu. I had a giant pork chop with an apple chutney, with mashed potatoes and veggies. Luke had a windy city burger. The food was excellent.
A few days after Christmas, we went back - for breakfast. There were 6 of us (plus Jack) on this excursion and we sampled a hefty portion of the breakfast menu....everything was delicious.
Bread pudding, made fresh daily:
Hippie cakes (pancakes with granola and fruit):
Mission omelette (corn, black beans, onions and cheese served with sour cream and salsa verde) with potatoes:
Biscuits and gravy:
Smokehaus omelette (three types of pork!) :
We'll soon be back for more!
