VANDAAG - Dutch - European Cuisine

THIS CLOSED

When my neighborhood place to have a brunch had an hour waiting line, I decided to head down East Village at Vandaag.  Earlier last month, I passed by Vandaag and picked up their loaf of smokey bread which was surprisingly eye-widening!  So, this was an opportunity for me to try having brunch at Vandaag.

For starters, we ordered a basket of their sweet breads.

The buns above were warm and still crisp on the outside.  Definitely fresh!  It was accompanied by 4 spreads you can use with the breads.  I tasted them all.  They were good but I preferred having the rolls by themselves.

The Brunch Menu at Vandaag where we selected our orders from.

I chose the slab bacon on the left with pear compote and mustard green.  I highly recommend this.  The slab bacon is so thick, it can pass for ham - a good ham.

On the right is the smoked mackerel with onion, skyr (Scandinavian cheese), dill, and green peppercorn.

Vandaag is spacious with lots of light at the corner of the street.  An excellent weekend Brunch place.
I'll try it for dinner some time.
