How have I only recently learned of Insomnia's brunch?!? Insomnia has been one of my favorite date places for years - it's cozy and atmospheric, and just noisy enough to offer a little privacy.
But the brunch! The coffee has cinnamon in it, and it is good. The hollandaise sauce, which makes or breaks an eggs benny, is goood. The home fries are smothered in a barbeque-like secret sauce and it is gooood.
This is a brunch worth waiting in line for, yet I've never had to wait more than a few minutes!
Also, the cocktail menus around the place are intricate chalkboard works of art, created by one of the staff.
