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.

Time Out New YorkTime Out New York: Try the sundae, bourbon-vanilla & Scotch-chocolate ice creams form the base; the booze factor are cherries soaked in Pimm’s, and salted-caramel chocolate sauce & whipped cream mellow the alky punch. Read more.
