AVONDALE — A Chicago chef has expanded his Avondale catering operation with an adventurous Sunday brunch service that he said may turn into a daily offering in the fall. Chef Mychael Bonner, who opened CMB Catering in 2023 at 2853 N. Kedzie Ave., began offering sit-down brunch on Sundays inside the Avondale spot in February, with a focus on the Afro-Caribbean flavors of his heritage. Called The Tasting Room at CMB, Bonner said the concept has taken off, and he hopes to expand it this fall.
