| - I'm a big fan of anywhere that serves many types of Eggs Benedict, and my family was in town and staying at the near-by Delta Chelsea, so this touristy spot seemed appropriate.
We walked in and were asked to wait for a little while, and they were busy so it was understandable. Then they took us up some stairs to the left of the entrance behind their coffee and juice bar station. It was pretty ridiculous, no one was around us and when we looked up we realized there was no finished ceiling above us. It was a bunch of exposed pipes, some of which were covered in plastic bags. Aesthetically, the rest of the restaurant is huge and clean, so this was just a really unfortunate place to be sat. This strange location also made it hard to order... tic toc...
Finally we ordered. Spoiler Alert: we all got eggs. I got the Eggs Benny on a crepe with a side of baked beans. It was actually quite yummy. Everyone else around me complained about their choices, and did the "mine's slimy want to try it?" thing. Who wants to try something after they're told it's gross?! Not this girl.
Our server was mainly absent through the meal, but we befriended a bus person who was really helpful at bringing us condiments, sides and mid-breakfast beverages. I wish I'd gotten his name. He rocked.
Egg-ceptionally average tourist place, and I likely won't return. Mom and pop breakfast spots are where it's at... everyone knows that!
BEWARE ESPRESSO LOVERS: My cousin ordered a machiatto. It was very obvious that it was just a normal coffee with hot foam. Damn shame.
