Reply to comment by hotblooded- in First date brunch spots? by [deleted]

Uhh. . . I don't usually chime in to be negative, unless it's about Paul Fireman or Amy DeGise, but I don't like their food. Maybe we've always gone at off times, but it's always been bland, over-cooked, and unimaginative to start with.

I would say Hamilton Pork. Or closer to that area, Hudson Hound, which has excellent cocktails. Their food menu is limited but well-executed, so look at it beforehand and see if there's anything that interests you.

I just should also say, Hudson Hound's cocktails are beautiful. Well-executed pieces of art. The Lady Lavender in particular is delicious, but also exquisitely photo-worthy. If that factors into your first date logic, let it be known.

On the other hand, the best thing on their menu is the adobo wings, and nobody has ever suggested that I look attractive while eating wings. "What is wrong with you?" is a more common comment than "you look cute."

Their dinner is meh, but I've always liked the brunch at Skinners.
