Oh My Darling · Downtown
A comfort-food brunch: lemon ricotta pancakes, biscuits, and morning mixers.
The Gem Diner · Franklin Square
A Spencer Street landmark founded in 1950 as the Little Gem and now run by Anthony LaLone, who took it over from his father Doug. This Is CNY's diner series covers its frittatas, its crowd-drawing weekend eggs benedict, and its signature Hash Attack and Heart Attack plates, which pile two eggs and a dense biscuit under homemade gravy loaded with Gianelli sweet sausage. Order a frittata or the Hash Attack.
