"Maybe your friends are always looking for brunch places where they can drink multiple rounds of mimosas, eat things like chilaquiles or a breakfast burger, and not pay a ton of money for all of that. Next time, suggest Esperanto on Avenue C. The Latin food here is generously portioned (and priced), and you should try to get a table outside on the sidewalk. They have a prix-fixe brunch deal where you can get any entrée, coffee, and a cocktail for $26 (and there’s also a bottomless mimosa deal for $20)." - hannah albertine
