Cafe D'Alsace Brunch - Upper East Side Gem

My absolute favorite brunch spot (and also one of my fave dinner spots!) in my neighborhood, the Upper East Side of Manhattan, is Cafe D'Alsace.  Their Alsatian/French cuisine is exquisite and super tasty!

It reminds me of a bistro you would find in France...that is, if I had ever been to France.  Future vacation and blog post?  Maybe in 2012 :-)

I started off brunch with a complimentary small slice of fresh french baguette with apricot jam and a tasty skim cappuccino.  Since I am very fidgety, I swirled the foam to make a pretty spiral.

I've been here a bunch of times already, and I have tasted almost everything on the brunch menu.  I cannot seem to order anything other than the goat cheese omelette, made healthier by asking for egg whites instead of whole eggs.

The best one I've had by far!  The potatoes and lightly dressed mixed greens were also tasty.  My boyfriend ordered the pancakes with fruit and syrup, which is to die for!

Even though my goat cheese omelette was amazing, I had a little food envy, I'm not going to lie.  John gave me a huge bite though...how sweet. <3

P.S. It's clear that my camera and my Blackberry take very poor quality photos for this blog.  Currently in first place in my NCAA tournament, so if UCONN wins tonight, I will be $160 closer to buying that Nikon SLR camera I've been dying to get!  Woohoo!
