I am trying to remember the name of a hotel in Manhattan that got my attention for some of its breakfast/brunch items, but my memory of details is so generic that it's almost laughable. But, here goes....
I read about this hotel two years or so on the internet, probably on a "best of" list or a food channel website. It was an upscale, elegant hotel, with a very nice website, photos of a resaurant with big windows and lots of glassware. IN reading the menu, a breakfast or brunch item that caught my attention was some kind of waffle or French toast option... maybe with coconut, maybe just stuffed french toast, something. The only slight distinguishing feature is that the hotel had a cookbook, also kind of elegant and refined, and I remember thinking, "Maybe I could just buy the cookbook and use their recipe for that waffles/French toast/whatever."
I am going to NY at the end of the month, by myself, which is a doubly rare event. I will have a whole Saturday to myself before meeting up with a friend in the late evening. I'd love to figure out this hotel restaurant eat that item that I never thought I'd be in a position to enjoy.
