Ah, the dilemma with weekend brunch is always that anywhere worth going also has a crazy line. So when we only had to wait maybe 25-30 minutes at Friend of a Farmer this past weekend, we considered ourselves lucky. I really loved the interior of this place - it felt like we were dining in someone's home. Unfortunately it was crowded and cramped, and I was with three others who I didn't want to make suffer as I took pictures, so these were all taken really hastily and I'm not happy with them. I actually hesitated to post these, but I did want to still share. It's just that this place invites such great photography, and I don't think I did it justice!
I'm a sucker for Eggs Florentine so I went with it, but it was a tad on the bland side, and I sorely regretted not getting the blueberry pancakes I was eyeing. Ah well! I was at least happy with my super pulpy orange juice.

ReplyDeletegood food in a rustic setting; winner.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you made such a crowded place seemed private.
ReplyDeleteStill awesome photos! Your posts make me crave our next visit to NYC.
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean when mentioned that you didn't want to make the other 3 you were with suffer while taking photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, so glad you shared - and I agree with Howie, you definitely made a crowded space look like a private, comfortable breakfast in someone's home.
You seriously take the best pictures.
ReplyDeletehow lovely -- this has a sweet rustic but urban feel to it.
ReplyDeleteI like these photos and do not feel any sense of urgency at all so I'm happy that you shared them - especially the last photo with all the jars lined up and the rustic, homey Christmas tree in the foreground. Absolutely festive!
