As New York defrosts, it’s time to get out of Morningside and enjoy what the city has to offer. Our intrepid food critic Allison Schlissel takes you out into the city on a student's budget.
What better way to spend a Sunday than a luxurious brunch followed by a leisurely stroll on the Highline? Don’t underestimate the therapeutic power of a sit-down brunch: it’s a simple way to unwind from the past week and recharge.
For those waking up from hibernation, the Highline is a park built on an old elevated freight rail line in the Meatpacking District. Since the Meatpacking District can get pricey, my quest was to find a delicious brunch place under $20. And it’s possible! Cookshop is right across the street from the Highline, cute, reasonably priced, and delicious.
