Ryan Z.Ryan Zola: Start with the Scotch egg, because it's an egg wrapped in sausage, then make moves with the Dutch apple pancake with bourbon maple syrup.

Zach H.Zach Hamed: Awesome brunch spot on the Upper East Side. Sit outside if the weather is warm, or under the skylight if it isn't. Avocado toast, eggs florentine, or yogurt and granola are all great bets.
