It’s hard to get a table at The Brunch Club. This hugely popular eatery is often chockfull of yuppie expats who think they're in a Manhattan cafe in "Sex and the City." The clean, simple and white-color décor and the little al-fresco area give off the impression that the little bistro only serves light fate – which is entirely wrong. The goat cheese crepes, while delicious, were pretty heavy. The same with the pasta dishes. But this is a great cozy place to hang out, relax, and read a magazine – just don’t go there during brunch hours; you'll never get a seat.
