The 21 Best Breakfast Spots In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Thai Diner's breakfast menu, served Monday through Friday between 8:30-11am, makes being late to your first meeting worth it. Familiar brunch favorites like the egg sandwich with herby sai oua sausage on roti are still available on weekday mornings. But there are a few breakfast-exclusive items that justify an early wake-up call, like vegan coconut pancakes, served with pandan and guava custards so cheerfully pigmented they look like fingerpaints. Our favorite is the luscious omelette stuffed with soft, silky crabmeat and swimming in tom yum sauce, ideally washed down with a thai iced coffee or a pandan coconut shake." - bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah, will hartman
