Penelope

Brunch Overview:
Two of the ladies were away in New York City this weekend, so of course Maggie and Kariann had to take advantage of the yummy spots the Big Apple has to offer. We discovered a trendy, local spot called Penelope that reminded us of a chic version of Pamela's. We had to wait for about twenty minutes, but it was a nice day. We didn't mind waiting outside in the nice weather as we planned our last minute tourist stops before heading home. When they called Maggie's name, we were then seated at the bar. 
Maggie ordered a mimosa and Kariann ordered a blackberry bellini. The drinks were delicious and so fresh. We both ordered the same thing, the Nutella Stuffed French Toast. And yes, it was as delicious as it sounds. The dish was topped with a bananas foster's type topping of deliciousness. Eating every last bite, we made conversation with the couple beside us. They gave us an inside scoop on the best places to go. Sadly, we were leaving to go home in a few hours. Penelope's was a great little spot to find, and we would definitely go back when in NYC again. After eating the french toast, we then walked 18 blocks to Kleinfeld's. 
Mimosa Rating:
Maggie: 4/5, So good! I wish it would've been a little bit bigger, but it was delicious. 
Kariann: 3.5/5, I had the Blackberry Bellini instead of my usual mimosa, but it wasn't bad. There wasn't much blackberry flavor to it, but there were little pieces of the fruit floating in it.

Check out this deliciousness!
The Nutella Stuffed French Toast was amazing!
We ate it all!
