Brooklyn Diner

When a friend requested meeting up, and I had no nights available, I asked if breakfast would work, and so glad it did! Working in midtown I wanted to find somewhere quick and convenient, and when I saw the lighted signs screaming "Brooklyn Diner" on 57th, decided to give it a shot.
The inside didn't quite match the loud lights outside, it was way more upscale than I expected it to be..but great food.
My omelette was more like a frittata but hands down one of the best egg dishes I've had in the city.. veggie omelette w/ spinach and mushrooms sans onions. The omelette came with challah bread, which I stupidly pronounced CHALL-uh instead of HALL-uh (being the WASC that I am). It was toasted and delicious, will definitely be on the hunt for more challah bread from now on..and that wasn't even the best part...they served polenta bites with the omelette, melt in your mouth bites...and a first for me with an omelette.
Server was very friendly and was never left waiting for a refill on water or coffee. For your next pre-work breakfast, or a quick break from work in midtown head to the BD.

I have found the place rather uneven. My last two meals there (both hamburgers) were bad enough that i am not likely to return.

I like your blog (I followed the links in from Cat's). I will have to try some of your suggestions.
