Grade pending restaurants are not for me, which is why I slowly backed away from this restaurant I will not name, and walked a few blocks over to Cafe Shane. The line was almost out the door but it was a little after 1pm, prime time brunch hours. The plan was to stick it out or join a longer line elsewhere.

I had first heard about Cafe Shane from The Culture LP . So I felt comfortable checking it out on my own, even sticking out the long line it was. It’s a snug spot. Quick, easy to read menu and tasty mimosas; they have a few gems on it too that makes it hard to decide, like I wanted the fish and chips but because my friend, who is a little foodie himself, ordered the eggs Florentine. I chose the french toast with fresh fruits. Who ever thought to put strawberries on french toast is a genius and I thank you. The meal actually came with apples, mangos, bananas and plenty of strawberries. All the fruits were fresh. Those strawberries do it for me every time. It really made the meal, otherwise I’ve had better french toast.

I would say that Cafe Shane is a good quick bite in Brooklyn. If you live in the area, just rolled out of bed and can’t decide where to go, you can find a decent meal here. Although I’m not compelled to run back to the mercy of the brunch menu, I could see myself enjoying a sweet brunch here once more for the love.
