"Estimated Wait: An hour on weekends The Payoff: Decent sausage, acceptable eggs, and lacy griddle cakes "No line is as embarrassing as a brunch line. LA transplant Breakfast by Salt's Cure tends to have a line down the block, and I've been coerced to stand in it so many times. I'm a fan, to an extent, but the place excels at just one thing: gooey griddle cakes. Everything else on the menu is so incredibly normal. Are the griddle cakes worth spending a good chunk of your afternoon on an unshaded stretch of 7th Avenue? No chance. Especially when the Brooklyn location has significantly shorter waits." - bryan kim, team infatuation, will hartman, bryan kim, matthew jacobs, nicolai mccrary, nick allen, sylvio martins, cathy park, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, candis mclean, aimee rizzo
