Want a Last Meal at Florent? Try Breakfast

Spot Check
At about 9:30 this morning, only a dozen people were eating at Florent. That may be because the gas has been out since Monday. Or is it because the restaurant is still in step four of the Kübler-Ross model: Depression? Take a look at Florent's board for some suggested medications. Or stop in before Florent closes on Sunday.

It's Breakfast Time in New York

Breakfast may or may not be the most important meal in a typical day of a New Yorker, but it matters: That's why we've devoted a whole issue this week to the first meal of the day. We break down the science of breakfast and ask 60 New Yorkers what they ate one morning. We send Adam Platt into a room with 100 breakfast cereals and refuse to let him out until he reviews every one. We've got the authoritative guide to bacon and eggs and all you need to know about the city's massive caffeine addiction. And Platt joins Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld in nailing down the city's twenty best breakfasts, from French toast to burritos. Pour yourself some coffee, order a bialy, and start reading.

‘Details’ Announces the Nation’s Top Breakfasts

Breakfast

Fresh off the heels of Esquire’s Best Sandwiches in America comes Detail’s Best Breakfasts in America. We’re beginning to think that these features are a little played out. Since Alan Richman’s “The 20 Hamburgers You Must Eat Before You Die” spread in GQ last year, it seems every major man mag is looking to create its own Saveur 100, gathering up the most picturesque greasy spoons west of the Pecos. But who is going to get to all these places, anyway? And since they tend to be written by committee, why should we believe that they are good? They are fun to read, we’ll admit. And we don’t squawk at their only giving New York two picks (Barney Greengrass and Mei Lai Wah Coffee House). New York is a horrible breakfast town, where you can’t even get buttered toast, much less good shredded hash browns or scrapple.

Smith and Mills Now Open for Breakfast and Lunch

The last time you'll see this place empty?Photo: Melissa Hom

Grub Street’s offices are moving downtown next month, and as much as we’ll miss cramming into El Rincon del Sabor for strawberry sodas and stewed oxtails, we're also looking forward to after-work tipples at that equally diminutive (if somewhat hipper) eatery Smith and Mills in Tribeca. Now we can anticipate midday oysters there, too, since the drink den has just opened for breakfast and lunch. We’re already eyeing the menu hungrily, and thanks to our always up-to-the-minute database, you can too!
