It figures two days after I finally write a review for Postino they start serving brunch.
Brunch and Postino. Two of my favorite things. When I got the email that they were starting to serve brunch I had to try it out. (Not to mention it was the perfect day to sit on a patio and drink mimosas). I tried the fritatta, which more closely resembled a Spanish tortilla, and it was good. (Not as good as the tortilla Espanola at Sol y Sombra....sniff, sniff). My husband had the country toast, which was kind of like an open face Monte Cristo, except minus the French toast part. A classy Moons Over My Hammy , if you will. It was also good, although I wish that there was an egg on each piece of bread. The other brunch offerings include French toast, BELT (Bacon, eggs, lettuce, tomato), a salmon dish (not quite a bagel and lox) as well as other egg dishes. They offer a few sides and starters- the walnut toast was fantastic. Walnut bread with brie and preserves? Yes please. In addition they also offer a huge pot of French press coffee, which my husband really liked. (It is Lola coffee).
They have also recently expanded the patio, which I didn't notice on my last visit a few weeks ago since I was seated inside. It now has more seating space and a nice fireplace. (Which was going when we were there for brunch, a nice touch but completely unnecessary, it was quite warm).
I am confident that Postino's brunch will make its way into our regular brunch rotation.
