My girlfriend is living in Gramercy for the summer, and having been there for a month, she’s beginning to familiarize herself with the local eats (she usually gets lost so I’m happy that at least she’s wandering over to the tasty places…haha).  Jokes aside, she did take me to this great French bistro for breakfast one morning called L’Express.  It’s a 24-hour place that has breakfast, brunch, lunch, and late-night dining (and a bar if you want somewhere to drink in the later hours).  

The meal I had was pretty affordable, only $12 for Eggs Florentine, home fries, and Orange Juice.  My girlfriend had an omelet and orange juice for about the same price so we couldn’t complain.  The service was great and particularly fast, but what else can you expect from New York?  Other brunch menu items included Eggs Benedict, Pancakes, French Toast, Eggs Copenhagen (Eggs and Salmon and Hollandaise Sauce).  The dinner menu had some French classics including pig’s feet, blood sausage, and tripe – all of which have been talked about highly from the local patrons. 

The bar seemed pretty cool when I passed by it later that night.  People were pretty well-dressed and good looking.  I don’t know if I’m allowed to say that though, because my girlfriend might read this later! 

The next morning, she took me back there because we both loved it.  I had the Eggs Copenhagen, which was also delicious.  I really liked this restaurant, not only because of its delicious food, but also because of its friendly vibe and good service.
