Dolly's - Review - Bedford-Stuyvesant - New York - The Infatuation

"Dolly’s will expand your definition of the breakfast sandwich. They've got your classic egg variety on some kind of circular bun with cheese and meat, but they also make a rich, delicious cheesesteak egg sandwich on hero-shaped sesame milk bread with shredded beef, griddled onions, soft scrambled eggs, homemade cheez wiz, and provolone. And because this is a freakishly genius invention, it also comes with A1 aioli and a McDonald’s-esque hash brown on the side. photo credit: Kate Previte photo credit: Kate Previte photo credit: Kate Previte Pause Unmute The Bed-Stuy bakery, which used to be Bread & Butter but has since reopened with a slightly different menu, made a name for itself on social media with its purple sprinkle-covered ube morning bun. We’re happy to report that they've kept that around as an addition to massive chocolate chip cookies and honey buns that require at least three napkins. Come as often as possible, and always plan for a breakfast sandwich and at least one breakfast dessert. Dolly's opens at 10am, and a small group of bun enthusiasts usually starts forming around 9:45am. Food Rundown Cheesesteak & Egg Sandwich Why don’t more places do something like this? It works so, so well. photo credit: Kate Previte Ube Morning Bun The famous, purple-sprinkled morning bun has a flaky exterior and a moist, earthy center. After eating this, you'll surely be covered in purple sprinkles for the rest of the day. And you won’t regret it for a second. photo credit: Kate Previte XL Choco Chip Cookie If you get here around 10am, you can snag one of these cookies when they're still warm, and the pools of chocolate on top look deep enough to swim in. But whatever time you come, get one. photo credit: Kate Previte Sticky Toffee Banana Bread A big hunk of banana bread with a sticky toffee glaze and chunks of toffee on top. Great, but not as essential as the morning bun. photo credit: Kate Previte Soft Serve Dolly's soft serve is only available from 3-5:30pm or 6pm. The flavors rotate weekly (keep an eye on their Instagram), but we're not sure what could ever live up to the blueberry pancake soft serve we had on a recent visit. The combination of buttermilk soft serve, blueberry compote, corn flakes, syrup, and lemon zest (complete with a mini pancake topper) tastes exactly like the real thing, just better. photo credit: Willa Moore" - Willa Moore
