Mother's Day Brunch Recommendations
Ouest: Another great housemade bread basket (Tom Valenti was trained as a pastry chef) and let's face it, Valenti knows how to make homey, sophisticated food better than anyone. 2315 Broadway, New York NY 10024; 212-580-8700; ouestny.com
Eleven Madison Park: Elegant, delicious brunch served in a classy, quintessentially New York setting. 11 Madison Avenue, New York NY 10010; 212-889-0905; elevenmadisonpark.com
Egg: It will probably be nuts this Sunday, but George Weld makes my favorite breakfast-brunch food in the city. 135 North 5th Street, Brooklyn NY 11211; 718-302-5151; pigandegg.com
Franny's: Pizza, salad, pasta, and terrific vegetables for brunch? Sounds pretty swell to me. 295 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11217; 718-230-0211; frannysbrooklyn.com
Morandi: I don't know if it's been discovered yet, but Jody Williams is doing wondrous Italian things with eggs at breakfast and brunch at Morandi's. 211 Waverly Place, New York NY 10014; 212-627-7575; morandiny.com
Centro Vinoteca: Right down the street from Morandi Anne Burrell is cooking up some fine brunch food at Centro Vinoteca. 74 Seventh Avenue South, New York NY 10014; 212-367-7470; centrovinoteca.com
Momofuku Noodle Bar: David Chang and company don't really do brunch, but what mom wouldn't want to have some of Chang's noodles or pork buns for Mother's Day. 171 First Avenue, New York NY 10003; momofuku.com/noodle
Boqueria: Last time I went to brunch there it was empty. Don't know if that's still the case. I loved the suckling pig hash. 53 West 19th Street, New York NY 10011; 212-255-4160; boquerianyc.com
Telepan: Great bread basket, egg dishes, and burger. 72 West 69th Street, New York NY 10023; 212-580-4300; telepan-ny.com
Pig Heaven: Hey, Mother's Day is Sunday, and I have very fond memories of eating Chinese food on Sundays growing up. Moms like spare ribs and roast suckling pig, too. 1540 Second (b/n 80th and 81st), New York NY 10028; 212-744-4887; pigheaven.biz
