Apparently if you go to Balthazar alone, they reward your bravery with free champagne. This might not be a secret, but I discovered it a few months ago when I took myself out to breakfast after a dermatologist visit across the street. I now schedule appointments at 9 or 10am–among other excuses–to give myself a reason for a quiet Balthazar morning. Also not certain if it’s a secret, but they serve a really good, well-priced English breakfast. It’s probably also nice to do this ritual with someone else, but then you don’t get the champagne. Worth trying staging a meet-cute with a friend or significant other.

having someone make a beautiful breakfast for you feels like such a luxury, but the secret is it’s usually the cheapest way to eat out

on your day off, of course. The bar serves breakfast everyday from 10-2, but I’m (almost) never here during those hours. I work weekends so I don’t indulge in brunch, but this is the closest thing I’ve got. One beer with a platter of eggs beef onions tomatoes and peppers, lazy walk home through the neighborhood and stopping in the shops at your leisure.

if you work brunch, get to work early and enjoy desayuno with the hombres in the back. Always off menu, always tasty! And it’s good to make friends with your buddies back there. Also relates to night shift.

Not supposed to blow this one up but idk - since college my friends have been on the camel crush wave; in a way, the surf n turf of cigarettes. No one is asking you to crush it but I dare you not to. Just the end though. RIP thanks to the FDA.

as a music focused tween I thought british accents were hot. I am in London right now. They aren’t. Also people give you too much information about stuff. I get it. that said, it’s warmer here than nyc right now.
