While exhibiting some work at the Photo Plus East Photography tradeshow in 2007, I had a chance to meet up with some cousins living in Brooklyn and sample what I believe to be the best breakfast in NYC.
Egg, or the pig & egg located at: 135 North 5th Street, Brooklyn New York 11211 is a simple train ride on the L to Bedford Avenue, then walk two blocks south to North 5th Street and Voila, you are there...
By Car: Take the Metropolitan Avenue exit from the B.Q.E., drive west on Metropolitan to Berry Street, then turn right and follow Berry Street to North 5th Street. Turn right on North 5th.

2 Eggs any style . . . $7
Served with organic white or 5-grain toast and hashbrowns
drinks:
French press-brewed sustainably grown coffee . . . $2.25
* perhaps the most memorable part of the entire experience was the fresh taste of the coffee. Possibly the best cup I had ever tasted.
**more expensive then your average quick breakfast, but once you factor in the fresh ingredients and the hearty portions your palate will quickly remind you that it's the best money spent. I often think about this place whenever I try a new spot, in a new town. I will often remark... "Never as good as Egg"
