@Nightwoodpilsen brunch (food pics).

A smoked sable omelet ($12) with a side of The Butcher + Larder maple-bourbon sausage ($4.50) and the housemade granola with almonds, yogurt and blueberries ($7).

Side note: Nightwood's Chef Jason Vincent won Cochon 555 with one of Stan Schutte's, from Triple S Farms, heritage hogs. His hogs frequent our freezer — as he is always at our Farmer's Market every Saturday. I also had the chance to visit Stan's farm last week with Chef Thad Morrow to take some photos of the animals ...  his pigs are most definitely raised with love. If you ever get a chance to buy some pork from him (or have the opportunity to dine at Nightwood), do it.

Morning edition.

A Morning Edition ($7.25) at the historic Courier Cafe in Urbana: a cheesy collection of scrambled eggs and grilled ham off the bone on a homemade buttery croissant.

Quite possibly the most delicious and comforting way to start one's day, definitely not the healthiest.

@LongmanAndEagle, you are divine.

Never too early for a whiskey sour ($9), a Ploughman's platter with cured meat ($13) + a pastrami on rye with an overeasy egg ($14).
