Every New Yorker “does” brunch, so if you happen to be in the SOHO area, make your way to this local hot spot. The market fresh menu updates the typical brunch cuisine in an environment that is warm and friendly. Take my advice, though and make reservations or get ready to hang out at the bar sipping on your Bloody Mary or Bellini while waiting for a table!
