This weeks brunch was definitely out of the norm. I've been wanting to try Aspen Social Club since I saw it on one of the "top NYC places to eat" list. I am a freak with NYC restaurant lists and literally have an entire list of restaurants I love/need to try grouped by neighborhood. Needless to say, once there, I realized I had been before when I first moved to NYC (ASC doubles as a nightclub). The restaurant was mostly empty, but it was a nice change from the usual overcrowded brunch spots.
ASC has a cozy cabin feeling to it and skinny white tree trunks in large glass cases line the perimeter of the space. I took these photos from the website, but honestly the place was THIS empty.
I ordered the ASC BLT with avocado, swiss, chipotle mayo, and french fries. I was worried the food wasn't going to be very good based on the turn-out; however, my BLT was one of the best yet.
How was your weekend?
This place looks and sounds awesome! Those french fries? Yes please!
