Cafe Luluc
My absolute favorite place for breakfast, at least in the Northeastern United States, is easily Cafe Luluc on Smith Street in Brooklyn. I am going through the motions here in Boston, and planning my escape. Cafe Luluc has incredible food at amazing prices. The eggs with hollandaise over smoked salmon ( a superior rendition of eggs Benedict) are my favorite, served with exquisite fries and a salad. The pancakes are stupendous as well, but, personally, I simply can’t resist the opportunity to have french fries for breakfast. The one potential kink is the place is cash only: you must hit the ATM first.
Also, unless you are into waiting, it is vital to show up before noon on weekends, or even better, stop in on a weekday and have a truly leisurely repast, filling the time between coffee refills by riffling through the numerous magazines on a rack by the door, for your reading pleasure.
Anyway, in the interest of sharing the love, here are some directions:
- Address: 214 Smith Street (between Baltic and Butler). Take the F or G to either the Smith or Baltic street stops.
- Phone: (718) 625-3815
- Hours: Mon-Thur: 7:30a.m.- Midnight
