New York City Restaurants-Breakfast and Brunch
____________________________________________
E. J.'s Luncheonette
These diners (there are several locations in Manhattan), which offer
comfort food and blue-plate specials, are really at their best for
breakfast. They serve a variety of pancakes, waffles and French
toast, along with other breakfast choices. Great kid-friendly menu.
Be aware that weekend brunch is a popular New York activity and
there can be very long lines. Daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Reservations not accepted. $. No credit cards. 1271 3rd Ave. (at
73rd Street; near the 77th Street subway station), Manhattan, New
York City. Phone 212-472-0600. Fax 212-472-0699.
Sarabeth's Kitchen
Weekend crowds flock to this homey Upper West Side eatery, and no
wonder: The thoughtful offerings range from chive-scrambled eggs to
pumpkin waffles with a generous dollop of sour cream. The homemade
preserves are always warm, and the baked goods are also delicious.

Veselka
Though this onetime greasy-spoon eatery has gone a tad upscale, it
remains an East Village institution thanks to good
Ukrainian-influenced diner fare. We like the potato pierogies and
raspberry pancakes. The low prices and round-the-clock service make
it a favorite of New York University students. Daily 24 hours. $. No
credit cards. 144 2nd Ave. (at East 9th Street; near the Astor Place
subway station), Manhattan, New York City. Phone 212-228-9682.
