As all good basic white girls know, brunch is the be all, end all of meals. Maybe it's the fact that alcohol is suddenly appropriate (and made deliciously) before noon, or maybe its savory Eggs Benedict. Whatever the reason, of all the things I wanted to do in New York City on my birthday weekend, brunch was a MUST. Now, when I started looking up brunch spots I was absolutely lost. It's New York City, I guess I should have expected brunch spots to be on every corner. And they quite literally were! My friend had recommended me to go to Cafeteria-- their cinnamon buns looked bomb! On this particular trip, though, we were in search of bottomless drinks. Yes--- bottomless. We found our sweet spot at an adorable restaurant in Chelsea called Lasagna.
This cozy Italian restaurant was the perfect location for Saturday Brunch. The space is a little on the smaller side, but the decor (including a floor to ceiling mirror) and the many windows made the space feel open and inviting. The food was absolutely delicious and most definitely Instagram worthy! So, by now you're just about sold. You're probably thinking to yourself, "Wow, what a quintessential New York place to grab Brunch. I should definitely put this on my to do list for the next time I visit the Big Apple." If you aren't quite sold yet, though, ...(drumroll, please)... they have bottomless drinks for two hours and it only costs $11.
Let me repeat that, in the city where one cocktail at dinner cost $15 a pop, you can get bottomless mimosas, Bloody Mary's, screwdrivers and bellini's for two hours for only $11.
Do I even need to say anything more?! Oh right, you can mix and match your drinks as many times as you want! Decide you want to change your Bloody Mary to a Bellini? NO PROBLEM! Do that as much as you tipsy heart desires! If you're honestly not convinced at this point, this is all I have for you:

All joking aside, Lasagna really was an amazing spot for brunch. I loved everything about it and will definitely be returning in the future! I'm also the type of person who loves to try every brunch place out there. If you have a favorite brunch spot in NYC (or really anywhere, I love to travel!), leave it in the comments below! I will never tire of morning mimosas and Eggs Benedict.
That's all for today's post! As always, don't forget to follow me on all forms of social media (linked below). I love to share fashion, beauty, coffee and the comedic tragedy that is my life--don't miss out on the fun! Until next time,
xoxo,
Good to know! I live near NYC (Long Island) and work here so always looking for good restaurants - and this is actually super close to my office. Will add to my list!
ReplyDeleteI have heard of Cafeteria and also heard some amazing things about it, but I have never heard of Lasagna. Thank you for sharing, it is most definitely going on the list. I'm in the city all the time.
ReplyDeleteThat place sounds amazing! Thanks for the recommendation. And you can't beat that price! Getting a cocktail in the city is so expensive!
ReplyDeleteWe're ALL about brunch here in Portland as well, and I'll have to add these brunch spots to my list for the next time I'm in NYC! Bottomless mimosas for just $11??! Heck yes!
ReplyDeleteI love finding new places to eat when we visit NYC! Brunch is my favorite meal and bottomless mimosas is always a good idea. So I'll have to try this place the next time we're there!
