Sunday Brunch:

 If you're looking for the ultimate spring/summer brunch spot (on weekends), look no further than the rooftop outdoor seating at the Midtown Continental, a restaurant by Stephen Starr.  Fairly priced with excellent food, this choice is sure to impress.

 (above) Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon $10.00.  Fantastic.  And the Hollandaise sauce was neither too creamy or tart.  Perfect in my opinion.  Plus the private dining on the rooftop never hurts.

 (above) The Big Bang: short stack, scrambled eggs, applewood bacon, turkey sausage, home fries & toast.  Can't go wrong here.  Little bit of everything and most difficult to finish, even for a bigger guy like me.

 (above) Normally, a side of fries would not make it into my review, but they were thin sliced and crispy, not too greasy.  Just delicious.
