clinton st. baking company & restaurant, purvis street, 2.0.

finally made a return to clinton st.- i've been meaning to for ages, but their last order timing is ridiculously early so i never managed to. finally made it back because J is one of the few people i know who likes brunch food for dinner (eggs!), which works for me.

i remember really liking the spanish scramble previously, but decided i wanted to try something else, so i got the buttermilk biscuit sandwich ($17). J, as usual, got salmon in the form of the smoked salmon scramble ($23).

our food took quite a while to come. i wasn't that hungry, but the waiting made me antsy.



my buttermilk biscuit sandwich came deconstructed, which suited me just fine, since i would've deconstructed it myself anyway. i was expecting just one biscuit, but i was surprised with two. i was also expecting the eggs to be... well... a bigger portion. still, the scrambled eggs were good, especially since it came topped with melted cheddar. also loved the house-made tomato jam. in all honesty i could've done without the biscuit, because it just wasn't quite buttery enough to be worth the calories, though i did eat the crispy edges. the bacon on the plate seemed more like an afterthought than anything else- they could've given me just a little more. still, because i wasn't that hungry, the food was enough.



so while the food was alright, i couldn't help comparing it to my previous experience more than a year ago. maybe i should've just stuck to the spanish scramble. i'm actually curious to return to see if their pancakes and spanish scramble are still just as good.
