What I Had: Smoked Brisket Hash & "Bacon & Eggs"
What It Cost: $11.95 & $8.95
Where We Were: Hell's Kitchen

Dying for some southern food, and this restaurant was just standing there with it's southern name all inviting... so why not?! The actual place is actually super nice. There's wood and great lighting and huge decorations, very friendly. We all actually ordered the same thing from their brunch menu and shared the 3 egg halves that came with the "Bacon & Eggs." If you did the math... 9 bucks for 1.5 eggs seems a little out of line, but I still stand by how amazing they were. And also, that will be the best bacon you've ever eaten. The huge portion make it seem like I barely made a dent in my meal, but I left full and maybe not as southern as I wanted to leave but it came close.

PS - Their butter = perfect

I don't know what a "weck" is or why my sandwich was on it, but it was pretty much a french dip... with a LOT of meat. The real winner though is the Eggplant Panini. So get that, always! And the fries were awesome too.

Where We Were: Hell's Kitchen


Ordering sushi rolls, little tacos, and burgers may seem like we might've been all over the place, but they went really well together! I have to say though, after the extensive appetizer, only half of the gigantic (but very delicious) burger was eaten. I like 'em plain jane but even then it didn't taste plain. Kind of pricy but a good choice if you feel like eating awesome burgers.
