Talk about a moment we have all been waiting for… When my favorite super local spot silent h closed down this winter, I was devistated. Until I heard that the same chef was going to open up a different spot with a new partner. Would the change be better or worse? Would I be furious with the new for supplanting the old, like I usually am?
And then I heard that they would be serving breakfast, as well as lunch and dinner. My hopes began to rise. This past Friday, I got to taste what aforementioned breakfast will be like when they open on Monday (21 June), and I began to rejoice. Simple, clean, delicous food. Best fresh squeezed OJ ever. Plenty of avocado in the avocado/cheese omlette. Bacon perfectly cooked (sorry all my veg pals, but I love that stuff!) I forgot to order a scone but I have high hopes. Plus the place looks great. Which is a huge bonus not to be underestimated.

Exterior looks inviting too. (Ignore the fact that I acidentally shot a 1 sec video rather than a still photo. I sort of love the arrow in there, though, which is why my photography is always a bit left of center…) There is even a little coffee window for that high level refreshment on the way to the L train.
In all, Monday morning will be a great day for the hood as what I am hoping will become an institution will be thrust forth into the sunshine. Nothing makes a neighborhood like a good hangout or two. With flattering lighting.
