That Sunday, Madrid and New York also had brunch at Pastis and report.
The New Yorker's view: The Sunday brunch is a New York institution which at Pastis acquires a French twist. It is a boulangerie; it is menus and mirrors on the wall; it is a huge crowd; it is delicious eggs Norwegian or pancakes with fruit and maple syrup; it is Bellinis or simply freshly squeezed orange juice as I normally have; it is Sunday end of morning or beginning of the afternoon in the Gotham, which is better spent with friends in our favorite places.

The Madrid visitor's view: As for me, Sunday morning came as a “two in one”, 1) Sunday brunch in NY, and 2) getting a glimpse of the Meatpacking district.We had our reservation at Pastis made well in advance, as the French style bistrot is always packed, especially for brunch. This was my second real NY experience after getting a cab at rush hour.
Another great thing was getting there in a foggy morning and coming out to a perfect sunny early afternoon. We strolled around the pretty shops, cafés and warehouses still serving their “meatpacking” purpose, all of which give such a relaxed atmosphere to this part of town.
