Balthazar

For brunch on my birthday we went to Balthazar.  Typically I would call this place a bit of a tourist trap.  However, the food more than made up for it.  I'll narrate below.

20 Spring St.
New York, NY
212.965.1414

Peach Bellini, iced coffee, bloody mary, and a bread basket that I'm still enjoying three days later...
Scrambled eggs in a puff pastry with asparagus and mushrooms.

Oh my goodness, the scrambled eggs look amazing! I also could do serious damage on that bread basket. I know it's always mobbed, but my husband and I always try to snag spots at the bar there if we saunter past and two are available! (We call it "prime real estate.")

I've been there twice and have really enjoyed the food.

I went there the weekend I met my husband. My favorite!!! So jealous, again. Hope you had a good birthday!
