It's Sunday morning. You awake red-eyed and weary from a Saturday night on the town. The clammy taste of a few ill-advised cigarettes lingers on the tongue as gauzy snippets of memory flutter on the insides of your eyelids like an old film reel. And, if you're me, chances are your wrist stamp has somehow managed to transfer itself to the side of your face during those restless witching hours between 2 and 8 a.m.
But above the sick, above the dehydration and above the jack (Daniels?) hammer on your brain, you are one thing: starving.
Well, starting this Sunday, you're also in luck.
Paragary's Bar & Oven--midtown's Zagat-rated gustatory hot-spot for 26 years--will launch its new Sunday brunch service from 10 to 3.Situated in the restaurant's gorgeous garden patio, Sunday Club at Paragary's promises all the gourmet-quality flourishes of the eatery's regular menu--but with a mid-morning twist. Wood-fired breakfast pizza, anyone? It's apparently a crowd-pleaser with bacon, cracked egg, scallions and a dusting of mozzarella and Parmesan.
Just be sure to land a table before noon. One word: beignets. Besides Willy's, I'm pretty sure this is the only place in town where you can get these cinnamon-and-sugar New Orleans treasures.
Salads, house-made sausage, omelets and some hairs of the dog round off the generous menu ($3 Bloody Marys! Paragary's, you are full of grace.).
But at the end of the day (or the start!) my money's on the 1/2-pound burger with cheddar, bacon and--wait for it--a fried egg.
Sunday fun day, indeed.
