Eggy's, a diner from the Custom House Tavern team, will open in April

Erin Mooney, the pastry chef at Custom House Tavern and the forthcoming Eggy's.
Details have just been released about Eggy's, the diner Sue Kim-Drohomyrecky and Peter Drohomyrecky of Custom House Tavern are opening in Lakeshore East (right across the street from Millennium Park). Let's dive in:
- Running the place (as both general manager and chef) will be Zach Millican, who has been serving as the chef de cuisine at Custom House Tavern. (Previous assumptions were that Perry Hendrix, the chef at CHT, would be the chef.)
- Erin Mooney, CHT's pastry chef, will handle the desserts.
- It's BYOB.
- It will serve breakfast and lunch (see menu items below) all day. For dinner, the restaurant will feature a three-course tasting menu, served family-style; this dinner menu will change daily.
- Prices will be on the lowish side—$3-$12 for breakfast, $8-$13 for lunch, $18-$24 for dinner.
- Mooney's dessert will consist of old-school items like ice cream sundaes, milk shakes, ice cream floats, N.Y. Egg Creams, double chocolate fudge cake, southern-style coconut cake, banana cream pie and sour cream Dutch apple pie.
- The savory menu will follow suit, with the following a sample of the breakfast items...
