LINCOLN SQUARE — For those mourning the loss of Bunny, the micro bakery, take heart: You have one more chance to Instagram the restaurant's photo-friendly foie gras owls on toast.
Chef Iliana Regan has planned a pop-up at her flagship restaurant, Elizabeth, set for Monday to coincide with the James Beard Awards.
The pop-up's menu, served a la carte from noon to 3 p.m., will include not only the short-lived Bunny's instantly iconic toast, but also whiskey glazed doughnuts, mushroom tea and "a very few other favorites from our lovely baking department," according to Elizabeth's weekly newsletter.
Kate Krader, restaurant editor from Food & Wine, will be pitching in behind the counter as Regan's right-hand gal.
Bunny unexpectedly closed for good Tuesday, just four months after opening. Regan and business partner Phil Tadros both cited financial difficulties.
Regan opened the Michelin-starred Elizabeth in 2012 and is still moving forward with plans for the Japanese-inspired Kitsune, coming soon to North Center.
Monday's pop-up at Elizabeth, 4835 N. Western Ave., will be a casual affair: no tickets or reservations required; first come, first served.
