Undermining our entire argument against the meal (to wit: we hate the really long lines), we just heard a rumor that The Publican is taking reservations for brunch.
We tried to call to confirm, but the line’s been busy for a solid twenty minutes. Which kind of confirms that they are, doesn’t it? You try: (312) 733-9555.
Update: Confirmation! They are taking reservations, and this Sunday’s brunch still has some tables available. Get cracking on those grits and beer mimosas, people.
