Brunch in NYC- downtown

Bobby Flay, of the Food Network, recently did a Throw Down with this place down on Clinton St between E. Houston & Stanton) for their famous blueberry pancakes.

Delicious!! Yesterday, I have their Huevos rancheros- spectacular!! 2 Sunny side eggs ( & I don't even normally eat eggs!) with red beans, fabulous guacamole, jalapeno sour cream, salsa picante and topped with pepper jack cheese on top of a flour tortilla. Amazing! ( I added a side of chorizo sausage) from the wonderful list of side dishes to make it even better! So good.

The potato pancakes are also incredibly good- topped with lemon creme fraiche, smoked salmon chopped hard boiled eggs & dill.

Their brichoe frenc toast & their pancakes- al of them, are servd with warm maple butter and their baked goods- OMG!!

We were lucky as it was a weekday, so the line was minimal, but beware- the weekends are a good 1 & 1/2 -2 hour wait- but SO WORTH IT!!

The also serve lunch and dinner and Sunday brunch hours have been extended from 9AM to 4 PM.

Also, The Cupping Room on West Broadway off Broome in Soho- a must stop as well. Open 24 hours a day, their brunches are so fabulous with both regular and whole wheat pancakes & waffles and I must admit- their stuffed french toast, with cream cheese, granola, nuts & raisins rivals mine!!
