"For a day of drinking and eating and drinking again in Astoria, the Creole brunch at Sugar Freak is just about the best you can do. Especially if your friend group usually makes claims about going to NOLA for Mardi Gras. This will be nowhere near the same as the real thing, but they do have cake for breakfast and a seafood boil bloody mary that comes with andouille sausage, corn on the cob, and crawfish tails so you can close your eyes and pretend." - hannah albertine
