We went to Fatty's Cafe today with B's family. http://www.fattyscafenyc.com/ It was a perfect day to sit in the patio area, with its azure blue fence and Cuban radio playing, especially since it wasn't that humid. Fatty's was not crowded, either, since I think everyone has gone out of town. I shared La Pistola- eggs over black beans and rice(I got a side of avocado, eggs over easy, and the rice was perfect), and the Big Fat Pancake Omelette with berries. Brunch comes with free mimosas or juice, and you get a choice of mango, papaya, or orange. Sam ordered the cubano sandwich, which had ham, pork, pickle and chipotle mayo- looked really good. We shared his plaintains- crispy and not greasy.
It was great service and atmosphere. Only drawback: the anti-bacterial soap in the bathroom. But I loved the giant can opener hanging on the coat rack! Everyone knows I love all things miniature or jumbo(it's one of our Wishbone slogans).
On another note: for dinner we had delivery from JJ's Fusion. http://www.myjjs.com/ We got some of the usuals: Scallop California roll(seared scallops, fake crab, seasoned mayo, and tobiko) and the excellent soft shell crab, along with a mango-cucumber roll & avocado roll(keeping with today's theme) and king crab dumplings. The food was just as good delivered as eaten there, which makes me love JJ's all the more.
