Brunch On Mothers day :) 

Brunch here is a two courses and drinks are a la carte... 

The Shrimp and Grits 

My Hubby thought this was delicious... I loved the charred flavor on the shrimp portion I got to taste, and the grits (polenta) was really nice! I would love the bigger portion next time!

My First Course

Muscles in Champange Sauce

Holy cow was this amazing! So amazing I had to get another order of this dish... I didn't even want my second course any more... This has to be the best muscle dish I ever had in my life!... Hence the lucky free mini order then full paid order that followed!!

Hubby and I got this Bellini, The were only $5 a piece and very delicious... We were getting drunk quick.. The mix was some type of pear and peach combo with the champagne... So good!!

My order of pancakes.. they were cool, but my eyes and heart were fixated on the muscles.. so I requested having these packed to go.. which I eventually ended up forgetting and oh well...

French Toast

He said it was amazing, I tried it and it was... no complaints on my end... only that I didn't want the pancakes and wondered why I ordered them instead of the crepes...

How cute is the syrup and whip cream on the side though!

Try this Place out! I know I will again... Oh and they have a cigar lounge downstairs... I am going to try that ish one day!

LA TARTE FLAMBEE

Desert....why not start off with that!! on this awesome flat tart bread.

Kipik

Veggie Style..... Spicy and super delicious

Provencale

The Classic twist on a margarita pizza but French style 

Saumon

This was an interesting one..... Not sure we'd get it again... the leeks and the salmon were cool but it was a bit salty for my liking.

This is a great hole in the wall that I would suggest anyone go to...

Cafe Martier

For $54 bucks this deal was nice to share among st friends. You get two soups of the day, two entrees, a bottle of wine, two deserts of the day and two cups of coffee.  

The soup of the day was Lentil soup. It smelled really good but I passed on having any. I hate beans and I know it was good because my friend ate it all :) 

                                       

I had a Grilled Chicken Ciabattini. It was pretty good. I only ate half though because I had my eyes on dessert! 

                                         

Red wine comes in different variety. I was happy that they had some form of Shiraz, which is one of my favorite type of grapes. It gets you warm and fuzzy inside, It's a great wine for steak or something hearty. 

                                       

My friend had the Turkey sandwich. He said it was okay, he was anticipating the desert like I was!!!!!

                                       

Low and behold what I wanted all along :) the awesome crepe filled with Nutella, strawberries and bananas. It was a party in my mouth I wanted another one. No crepe has ever failed me!

                                        


Once we were done with our meal and wine we had a complimentary cup of coffee. I don't drink coffee so I asked for a sip just to see if I would like any. The sip cup was as small as you see below. But I did like it.

I hope this brought some insight into this cute place in Midtown. Any deal I can find I will surely post onto this site. Till then my friends happy eating!

Happy Hour at Piquant

Posted on February 19, 2012

Hello all,

Have I not said how much I love to eat food! well I do and my most favorite thing to do is dine out and have a good time doing it. I also love to do it on a budget. Out with one of my good friends we decided to go to a local restaurant in Brooklyn. It’s call Piquant. We mainly went inside for the happy hour, mind you it was Saturday afternoon! The first picture below was one of a few drinks I had. It was a peach margarita frozen of-course with a splash of pineapple. My mouth was in heaven. No to mention the fact that it was only $4.50!!!

I had about three of those drinks. I could not have been happier. The second picture below was something I would surely not share with any one because it was just that good!. It was a garlic infused herb chicken roasted over white rice. It was so good I wanted another order but that would just have been gluttony.

I would definitely come here again for any occasion (happy hour or not). Everything was just perfect!
