menu. It's a popular weekend brunch spot that morphs into a trendy
bar scene in the evening. Known for the good-looking waitstaff and

diner. You can order anything from turkey sandwiches and omelettes
to tofu fajitas. Daily 24 hours (closed Tuesday 4 am-8:30 am).

L'Express
A relaxed and reasonably priced French bistro. Favorites are the

hours. $$. 249 Park Avenue South (at 20th Street; near the 23rd
Street subway station), Manhattan, New York City. Phone
