If you find yourself in Harlem, you need to do two things: 1 – go to Lido for brunch or lunch. 2 – maybe go back for dinner. But I can only speak to the first part. I had visited Lido a few years ago, and I remember it being delicious then, […]

Shakshuka Eggs Benedict with Bacon and Chili Oil
I love shakshuka; it’s a classic Mediterranean dish with eggs poached in a tomato, onion and chili pepper sauce. Doesn’t sound like much but trust me, it’s heaven. I had the crave over the weekend, and I just got my FIRST cast iron skillet, so I thought I’d give it […]
Chocolate Krispy French Toast Balls With Maple Vanilla Glaze
I wanted to come up with a clever name for these and that was the best I could do. I’m normally more creative but the fat might be finally going to my head. I really love french toast and haven’t made a variation on it yet, so I figured it […]
Crazy Delicious Brunch at Queens Comfort
This place may have just reaffirmed my love for my hometown. Yes, I am a Queens girl. Grew up in Astoria, then moved to Bayside, and my mom still lives there. She’s reppin the Baysizzle HARD. That last part right there is a good example of why I don’t brag about being […]
Bites from Brunch at Maialino
Maialino’s brunch definitely didn’t help quell my obsession with Danny Meyer’s restaurants. I might as well have rolled out of there with the amount of food we ate. Do I regret it? Would you regret a honey butter glazed ham biscuit? Or a porchetta sandwich dripping with egg yolk and […]
Late Brunch at Two Door Tavern
Thanks to a rather unpleasant experience with Four Loko the night before this, I didn’t drag myself out of bed until the afternoon, so I couldn’t take advantage of the drink that comes with the brunch deal for $14.95 (one Bloody Mary, Mimosa or draft beer with your entree), but […]
Blah Brunch at Le Comptoir
You know when you read a menu of a restaurant online and get really excited? Then you sit down for a meal only to find out that it’s disappointing and not at all what you imagined? I have had dates like this. But this weekend I had brunch like this. […]
Bites from Brunch at David Burke Kitchen
Creative, beautiful, delicious. These are all words I would use to describe David Burke’s cooking in general, but more specifically, it describes my brunch at David Burke Kitchen on Saturday. Following some unnecessary (but enjoyable) spending at the Bloomingdale’s friends and family sale with my friend Alex, we had a […]
