What Makes the Most Important Meal of the Day Delicious?

Hello Foodies,


The answer is Maialino—Danny Meyer's restaurant located in the Grammercy Park Hotel. The name means little pig, which is a feature of the Italian-themed breakfast. With Tour de Forks alum, Jackie Chasey, we shared Ricotta Pancakes with peach compote and maple syrup, the Porchetta al Uovo (pictured above) - a roast pork, ciabatta, and fried eggs, and Cacio e Pepe Strapazzato - scrambled eggs, pecorino, and black pepper. Our fave was the porchetta. The room has big bay windows that open out to Grammercy Park and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable about every dish on the menu. Since there were three of us, our waitress ordered three fried eggs for our porchetta and cut it into three pieces before we could think to ask. And we think of everything. Make your most important meal of the day delicious at Maialino, located at 2 Lexington Ave., New York, NY 10010 (21st St.).

Enjoy,

Lisa
