Brunch Hours: Sat & Sun, 12pm – 3:30pm

My Rating: 

Long Story Short: Interesting Mediterranean menu, including a couple of non-traditional egg dishes, entrees between $9- $15.  Bloodys were not bad, and outdoor seating was a little weird, but not terrible.

Long Story Long:

Basically, I fucking love my birthday.  I honestly don’t foresee a time when I won’t want to do it up: milestone year or not, I like to stretch out the celebration as long as possible.  So after a dignified & intimate dinner on the day of (Thursday, May 13, 2010 – #31 for the record), I had planned a roof-top cocktail gathering for the following Saturday night, thanks to the generous hosting offer from Monster (nee The Filmmaker).  I prepped for my fete the way I usually do – brunch followed by last minute frantic shopping (at least there was no danger of a snowstorm at this time of year).  Since they were co-hosting, I met Monster and P-Nasty at Barberry to plan.  I arrived first (odd with this couple as they tend to be super-punctual) and I got us a sweet table outside which was admittedly a little canted, but whatever – it was a gorgeous day, so who cares anyway?  I ordered a bloody and before the waitress could even bring it, they arrived, suspicious smiles on their faces…. They apologized for their late arrival and we exchanged some stilted small talk.  It was… awkward for some reason, so I had to ask what was up.

“We have something for you.”
