Your typical French bistro, just across Seinfeld's cafe. The outdoor tables were very picturesque, but it was too hot to drink coffee and munch home fries and bagels without the A.C. on. Diego wasn't there, but my friend Catherine took care of the eggs Benedict. They were ok; not terrible, but not particularly delicious.
The third bruncher ordered fruit, yogurt and granola. This seems to be the health-conscious response to brunch... I don't particularly agree with this trend. Remember, brunch is about relaxing and feeling the experience; if you are going to be worrying about counting calories,
don't do it!
I ordered bagel with smoked salmon; although very New Yorker, not very French. Nothing was particularly memorable, except for the shortage of salmon... With only two slices, I ended up having 3/4 of lox and bagel, and 1/4 of just bagel.
I'm probably not going back again.... They have a nice Parisian-style outdoor setting (small white tables and wicker chairs) which could be considered as an appropriate background for the perfect brunch, but the food was not on pair with it.
