On Saturday morning we headed into town for a bit of a mooch and for some brunch. We thought we'd try and find somewhere completely new, and so stumbled across the wonderful and delicious Delicatessen!
Down in SoHo (or NoHo, I'm not sure which side of Houston Street it was on), on the corner of a cross-roads was a very busy looking restaurant/cafe with stainless steel and big bold lettering on the outside.
It was buzzing with people, lots of groups of friends meeting up, enjoying the amazing weather and the delicious food. It felt quite European with the inside/outside seating, the seats flowed out onto the pavement and the walls of the restaurant were completely open, making the whole place feel very bright and airy.
(This picture's off the Delicatessen website, it was obviously a LOT busier than this yesterday)
The interiors were fantastic too, lots of crisp clean edges, small white tiles, little sofa seats, Eames style chairs and a mix of wooden clad walls and glass walls. Apparently there's a downstairs bit with a swanky bar bit, but we didn't go down there this time.
The food was fantastic, their tag-line is that they do 'International Comfort Food' - so there were burgers, big breakfasts, mac n' cheese, salads and all sorts... We couldn't resist going for the Cheeseburger Spring Rolls for a starter, then I had Eggs Benedict (Chatsworth's Eggs Benedict are still the BEST) and Abi had a Chicken Caesar salad.
The Spring Rolls were a bit unusual - I think we'll stick with Chinese Spring Rolls, but you've got to give things a go haven't you? The rest of the food was yummy and the whole look and feel of the place was fantastic - it was a great find and somewhere that we'll be going back to me thinks.
Perfect for a lazy Saturday morning.
