Greek Brunch! |
Presenting with an atmosphere of cool Mediterranean charm dressed in cerulean blue décor, Faros
offers a unique menu of Greek cuisine. That means that it is not all about pasticchio and moussaka,
but much more.
My sister and niece joined me for a delightful Saturday brunch at this restaurant of two stories tucked away in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn. We began with a robust cup of coffee which was richly perfect in its rarity. My sister enjoyed the addition of figs, roasted walnuts and an array of berries to fluffy pancakes. This transformed an ordinary brunch item into a brighter experience for the palate.
My niece and I ordered Avga Chios. This dish is the Greek interpretation of the American Eggs Benedict. Faros prepares their eggs poached over baquette and smoked salmon. The creamy Hollandaise was brighter in color than others I have had, but the citrus flavors complimented the smokey salmon very well.
The attentive and friendly staff of Faros also serves lunch, dinner and banquets for private functions. Given our enjoyable visit for brunch, I would definitely return for dinner. The evening menu is vast and bold with vibrant ingredients. It especially includes eclectic fresh seafood entrees and savory Greek cheeses tossed with fresh colorful salads. A lively Greek wine list holds great promise for well rounded dining. We will return to Faros!
