City Bakery’s incredible and extremely rich hot chocolate with marshmallows is so delicious as to be alarming: a masterpiece; one of the best in the city.
Come for the cocoa, and stay for the food and ambience during brunch time. This huge bi-level loft-urban canteen hits every mark: knockout eclectic cold buffet/salad bar, great hot food bar with terrific macaroni & cheese or chicken wings, and last but not least, the dangerous dessert bar : grab yourself a delicious chocolate chip cookie or the caramelized “pain-perdu” while they’re hot…
For less than $15, you’ll leave full and happy. On the downside, the place is always overcrowded at brunch time (from 10 a.m. onwards), and you have to wait in lane and pay before eating, which can give your hot food some time to cool off. But munching while you wait is permitted.
