Not too long ago my post office was closed. I was rerouted to the one on 18th.  I past this place first dish I saw was Mac and Cheese Croquettes.  My next Saturday off, I went for brunch with my homegirl. No croquettes on the brunch menu, pretty sure I could’ve ordered them though. They had something else that caught my eye,  deviled eggs!!  I decided to have a savory brunch instead of sweet.  I had the eggs and a crispy chicken benedict. A savory waffle, greens, chicken with an egg on top. I got egg only on one, not a fan of the runny egg.  Chicken was cooked well, nice and crispy, greens were surprisingly tasty the waffle had a touch of sweetness.  My girl had a steak burrito it was huge!! The hash browns, were yummy.  I had a tequila based drink, it was cool and light.  It was called snow cone, so appropriate.

Lunch with my peeps was great.  I ordered my croquettes, immediately.  I had wings and ginger carrots too. My date had calamari and a salmon burger.  I had a/c lemonade,  apple cucumber. He had a berry drink with apple juice in it.  They were both blended and super yummy. Mac and cheese was soo good. The crust on it was perfect, the mac and cheese was hot when you opened it. The calamari was nice and crispy.  The wings were cooked enough to have that nice crust on it. The had a nice flavor. The carrots were the baby ones, orange and yellow.  The ginger was on target,  not over powering.  His burger, whoa!  It was big, had lox and sliced avacado along with lettuce, tomato and onion.  It was marvelous. Served with fries, they were good too.

The service was great both times I went. The atmosphere is really swank and sleek.  I would absolutely go again. They have a nutella stuff french toast, gotta try that.

This post is super late. My phone was stolen the day I lost my Nana. I got a replacement phone and cracked the screen the night I finished packing up her things.  A whole lot in a few weeks. My pictures were also lost, I managed to find most of them but they aren’t uploading. I will try to figure out a way to possibly post some pics later.  Without pics, here finally goes the post.

I used to know of so many places to eat in Brooklyn and now there are so many more choices.  I searched a site for someplace new to go to. I heard smoked meat and got all excited.  This place makes their own sausage, smokes the meat and makes fresh lemonade and iced tea.  You can see the different cuts of the meat. The different roasts and cooking techniques.  They serve the food on a tray with brown paper.  I ordered the pulled chicken, my sister had a pork taco and housemade sausage. My sandwich came with chips (kettle cooked) and cole slaw. I had to order the fridge pickles. I love homemade pickles. They were the perfect compliment to my meal.  The meat was tender and seasoned so well, the chicken was so good, you could taste the smokey flavor without it being overwhelmed.  Her sausage was grilled and served like a hot dog, sans the bun.  The taco had pulled pork.  They had a homemade hot sauce and a bbq sauce with just the amount of tang. I had a Boylan cream soda, the best.  They also had desserts, yum!  A grasshopper, a whoopie pie and a salted caramel brownie.  In case you haven’t noticed I have a thing for salted caramel.  The grasshopper and brownie were amazing.  The whoopie pie, was not it.

I would absolutely go back and have
a real drink and a taco.

Update:

I went to Dekalb Food Market and there’s a Fletcher’s. I had a bbq chicken sandwich and bbq waffle fries.  Same great taste, just closer.
