bellyQ to offer brunch

Got a press release in the inbox today about the new brunch menu at bellyQ in Chicago. Sounds like some great offerings. Here's a look:

Fans of bellyQ (1400 W. Randolph) can now enjoy three meals a day from Bill Kim's latest Asian barbecue concept when their weekend brunch menu launches Sunday, March 3. Available every Sunday from 10am-2pm, Chef Kim's new menu showcases his signature flavorful approach with a creative twist to the traditional brunch offerings such asTea Smoked Duck Benedict ($15) or Fried Chicken with Donuts and Pork Sausage Gravy ($14). The menu offerings have a personal touch, as Chef Kim was not a fan of breakfast growing up, but his mother's creative renditions on classic breakfast foods had him cleaning his plate. For example,The Huckleberry Jam and Vanilla Maple Syrup French Toast ($11) is a result of his mother always using vanilla in her French toast recipe. Guests can also get a taste of what Chef Kim has for breakfast every morning when ordering the Banana Yogurt Shake ($4), another family recipe from his wife Yvonne. Additional offerings include: Entrees Salmon with Red Quinoa, Spinach & Asian Coleslaw ($15) Crispy Tofu with White Corn Grits & Mushroom-Vegetable Gravy ($12) Pork Belly Sandwich with Nuoc Cham Mayo & Lettuce ($12) Chickpea Lemongrass Patty Melt, Cheddar on Marbled Rye Bread ($11) Nori Waffle with Sake, Maple Syrup & Pork Patties ($12) Posole with Pulled Chicken, Rice Noodle & Poached Egg ($12) Vietnamese Omelet, Potatoes, Feta Cheese & Shrimp ($13) Sides Pork Sausage Gravy & Grits ($6) Lemongrass Pork Patties ($6) Sweet & Sour Bacon ($6) Yogurt with Homemade Granola ($6) Home Fries with Salami ($6) To launch the new brunch menu, bellyQ will be throwing a kickoff party March 3 at 10:30am with brunch bites and a DJ for all Facebook fans.
