Blissful Brunch and More!
Brunching is one of my favorite past times in New York. There are two restaurants that serve amazing breakfast food: DuMont and Relish. What I love about DuMont is that they serve you free doughnut holes while you wait for your food to come. The waitress declared, everyone needs doughnut holes; and lady-- I concur!
In Relish, one side looks like an old school diner, the otherside is all sexed up with gold walls and dark velvet booths. They serve delicious milkshakes, as well as brunch drinks...alcoholic brunch drinks. They have a list of more exotic flavored mimosas which include, mango, peach, and pink grapefruit! Delicious!
Either of these restaurants are a good bet for a mouthwatering brunch experience.
If love was in the form of food...like a dream come true, and everything you touch turns into culinary gold....you would find it at Sweetwater Bar & Grill. I've never tried borsch before, but my friend ordered it and told me to give it a try. If you don't know what borsch is, it's a soup made of beets. Now if you're like me, you'll think: Beets? Eew gross! Isn't that for old people, like prunes or something? I dunno, if that's what old people eat, then call me grandma because it was incredible! It has this sweet earthy taste, yet super rich and satisfying. The Three Cheeses Gnocchi is delicious! Tiny little potato dumplings baked into this creamy cheese sauce. YUMMAAAAY!
But nothing can defeat the Switzerland Lamb Shanks. Tender morsels of meat that literally fall off the bones. It's so soft, you barely need to chew. Pair that up with creamy mashed potatoes, topped with some refreshing watercress. HEAVEN!!!
