English breakfast with bacon, eggs, baked beans, griddled tomatoes, and toast<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Why it’s another 2013 Best Bite<\/strong>: While this humble breakfast doesn’t attract the same attention as Au Cheval’s legendary burger<\/a>, I was just as impressed by how flawlessly each component was executed.

My favorite part was the blistered griddled tomato, which was juicy, salty, and meaty enough to almost act as a protein on its own. Time Out Chicago<\/em> did a great breakdown of what goes into this dish<\/a>. <\/p>\n
