To me, this isn't so much a fancy brunch place as a really great breakfast joint. The menu is short and simple; the eggs are PERFECTLY cooked.
I bow before a cook who can consistenly make an omelette that's firm and yellow, not burnt-brown and falling apart. Aunties and Uncles does this every time. The only other place I know in town that does is Jacques Bistro, where the omelettes are twice the price (and, btw, worth it).
When I saw the croque monsieur, I thought it was just a pretentious way of saying grilled ham-and-cheese on challah. But when I tasted the subtle dijon, I understood. It makes the sandwich.
We've lost most of our old-fashioned diners (Stem, RIP). Aunties and Uncles is carrying on the tradition. Bravo!
