You are correct on the hip waitresses. From what I remember it was great service and good looks, never a bad combo. As far as the “Manhattans”, are you referring to the remainder of the women on this great island?

That sounds like a pretty serious burger. I was there for breakfast so it was all about the peanut butter banana sandwich for me. Next time I go, I’ll consider burger time.

Where else did you eat on your last trip to NY?

My last brunch would have to be at my mom’s house. She’d have bagels and lox and whitefish salad, banana pancakes with chocolate chips and coconut, fresh coffee, ice cold organic milk, and maybe even a cheese omelette for good measure. Oh boy, I’m feeling full all ready.

If I had to choose a restaurant however, I’d be hardpressed to not choose Clinton St. Baking Company. The banana walnut pancakes with maple butter are heavenly. The eggs are fluffy and delicious. The sugar cured bacon is sweet and crisp. Where else could you go wrong? Then again, splitting a bacon, sausage, cheese, hashbrowns breakfast bowl and some French Toast at Denny’s is definitely calling my name.

But if I had to choose right now, it wouldn’t be at a place in the city. My favorite brunch spot can be found in Brooklyn heights- Siggy’s. It’s a friendly hole in the wall on Henry street.

How about you? Where would you go for the Last brunch?

Great response. Of all those places I’d have to say Friend of a Farmer would be my first try…. though I can imagine how packed it would be on the weekends. Everything sounds pretty amazing there, particularly the omelets, and the fact that they’re all served in skillets is just icing on the cake.

Waverly sounds solid but I live on the UWS and most of my friends are on the east side, I probably wouldnt make it over there but it never hurts to know a good spot if I am.

Good also looks pretty money albeit a little pricey, $11.75 for eggs,bacon,cheese, and onions on a kaiser roll? $16 for bacon, eggs, and pancakes? Then again, if I go with the Banana Cream Cheese stuffed French Toast for $12.75, I’d be a happy camper.

If you could only eat one more brunch in this entire city, where would it be?

ah how i love a good brunch… a few of my favorites:

Good (if im looking for a fun scene, too much food with a mimosa, and am patient enough to wait on line for an hour)

Sullivan street diner (for reasonable prices-cash only, no wait, and complimentary scones/muffins)

Friend of a farmer (eggs in a skillet, “can i get you a coffee?” before you even open the menu, the incredible corn muffins and spread, cozy atmosphere)

Waverly diner (too much to drink the night before and in need of greasy goodness for cheap; they offer french toast/waffles/panackes with an egg for $6.50- love this place)

I guess it depends on what I’m looking for and who I have for company! Any other brunch recommendations?

At the restaurant, the woman I spoke to was unaware that it wasn’t on the menus but it definitely exists and it’s only served until 4pm everyday.

I have to admit, the fact that we know about it but others don’t does make it a little more badass.

Where are some of you favorite breakfast/brunch spots?
