"This vegan cafe and specialty foods store in Clinton Hill, from the people behind Mekelburg’s, is where you’ll find some of the best plant-based brunch food in the city. They serve a breakfast torta with king trumpet mushroom bacon as well plant-based lox bagels, picadillo empanadas, and pozole. You can’t go wrong with any of those dishes, and nothing costs more than $20. If it’s nice out, we recommend hanging out all morning on the pleasant patio, but if you must do takeout, you can always grab some guava cream cheese doughnuts to go and eat them on your couch." - neha talreja, will hartman, bryan kim, kenny yang
