Tribeca

Tribeca is a neighbourhood in New York, which is an abbreviation for Triangle Below Canal Street.

But that's not what I'm talking about here.

Bev had recommended a 'great place for breakfast' on Dumbarton Road namely a cafe called Tribeca. After the most brutal set of nights in my experience (I had no time to sit down, or go to the loo let alone eat) I decided yesterday that I deserved a treat. Ajeet had also been on nights at the same time as me, so upon my urging, we met up for a relaxing breakfast in Tribeca.

The interior looked much the same as many other cafes. But as soon as I clapped my eyes on the menu, I had a good feeling about the quality of the food. It took us quite some time to decide. Ajeet went for a lighter option as usual, and I went for a heavy meal, as I usually do.

They had coffees such as cafe bonbon and cafe leche leche. Sound cute, don't they? Apparently these are sourced from Spain and have condensed milk in them. We decided not to be too adventurous so I went for tea and Ajeet had a moderately exotic chai tea latte.

Ajeet's slurpilicious looking chai tea latte. It tasted amazing btw.

My rather boring looking tea in comparison. I just love the huge cups which is difficult to appreciate from the pics.

I asked for a Meat Lover's omelette ( I am an intractable carnivore) which was originally to have Cumberland sausage, parma ham and German salami in it, but I asked for the salami to be replaced with olives instead, which they obligingly did.

Close up of the omelette - the other three quarters look the same :)

I was absolutely stuffed at the end of it. I have no doubt that Tribeca will be seeing a lot of me in the future.
After that, we had a leisurely walk home. It was a change not to be rushing home to sleep!
