Go for Power Breakfast. Still the best place in New York to start the day with the top in every industry.
The Chick-un & Waffle is the stuff that my dreams are made of, with its mound of southern fried seitan and real maple syrup. The warm brownie a la mode is also phenomenal.
Amazing food. Try the croquettes to start, and Bacalhau for an entree. Of course don't skip out on the (guava) flavored caipirinha
Great breakfast and diner staples. Solid coffee shop atmosphere, with two person booths and a very busy counter to sit at. Bring cash and enjoy a gyro.
