When in Chicago, my girls always wannt to stop for breakfast in one of the 4 locations of Orange. The small neighborhood brunch and juice restaurant is known for its fresh squeezed juices, esoteric breakfast fare and "frushi". Frushi as pictured below is fruit sushi. Typically, it is sweetened shortgrain rice wrapped around delicate cuts of fresh fruit to look like sushi.

Also, featured at Orange is a weekly flight of pancakes-chef selection of silver dollar pancakes all matched in a common theme. Today it was a flight of 4 tropically prepared pancakes with coconut, pineapple, mango, and other island tastes. No one in our group opted for the flight.

| Chai-infused French Toast |
Instead, the Chai-infused french toast, chorizo hash, steak and eggs, and one of their house omelettes featured at our table today. No one was displeased.

To be fair Amber will remind all that you should be prepared to wait at Orange. No reservations are taken and the place can be crowded. Service is friendly if slow at times (making everything to order is of course a time consuming task), however we took great advantage to catch up with Grandma and Gramps.
