New York Softbite 🥪
This weekend in New York, the weather changed suddenly! 🌧️ I had a workshop scheduled at 11:30 AM in Long Island City (LIC). Since many restaurants don't open until 11, I decided to try a surprise brunch spot near the workshop. 🎁 🍃🌸 ① Chicken Karaage (Wasabi Mayo) When I took the first bite, I was thinking, "How can fried chicken be this good?!" It had that perfect slightly crispy texture, just the right amount of oiliness without being greasy. It was perfectly fried, not too crispy and not too soft. 🍗 ② Tiramisu French Toast This one was just okay. I didn't really taste the tiramisu flavor—it tasted more like chocolate milk bread. My friend said it reminded them of a Hong Kong-style dessert called "leak milk pudding," haha. If you have a sweet tooth, this might be for you! 🍯 🍃🌸 ③ Soufflé Pancake Egg Benedict (Prosciutto) The soft-boiled egg on top was super bouncy—when it wobbled, it was so cute I almost didn't want to eat it! 😍 There was avocado inside, but I was too full, so I picked it out. The prosciutto was nice and not too salty. It was a unique combination with the soufflé pancake. I have to say, their soufflé pancakes are just amazing! 🥧 ④ Kyoto Drip 🍃🌸 ⑤ Butterfly Matcha These two were a bit of a miss for me. The Kyoto drip was just pure, strong coffee—definitely something you'd need on a workday! 😄 The butterfly matcha was just matcha with condensed milk—nothing too special. 🍵 Summary: The service was great! Almost everything I tried was a hit! Next time I go, I'll definitely try more of their soufflé flavors. 🌟 Address: 42-60 Crescent St, Queens, NY 11101 🍃🌸 Business Hours: Weekend: 9:00AM-9:00PM Weekday: 8:00AM-9:00PM #New York Food #LIC #New York 🍔
