Croque Madame

Toasted homemade bread with butter, lime and cilantro guacamole, and lightly salted salmon. Salad mix and parmesan add freshness and balance — light, rich, and very Brooklyn brunch-style.

Ukrainian comfort food that Emily couldn't resist. Delicate cottage cheese dumplings with vanilla, custard cream and berry sauce. Pecans, pistachios and freeze-dried cherries add character - familiar, but with a bit of a Brooklyn feel.

Cottage cheese pancakes with currant confiture, condensed milk, pistachio-honey crumble, yogurt and lime zest.

English breakfast: with hash browns, scrambled eggs, ham, beans in tomato sauce, grilled tomato, sausages, cheese sauce and tartar sauce.

Fragrant shakshuka from the oven: lots of vegetable salsa, bacon chips, eggs, with herbs and homemade bread from Emily
