brunch, bar tano


Bar Tano- you're either the sibling of Bar Toto...or we have a copy cat. Menu is strikingly similar, as is the interior. It was the sea foam chairs and tables that caught my eye as I ventured into the Gowanus...the crowd easy, almost on par with coastal Oregon folks. A bit crunchy, beer appreciating, earthy features.

I ordered a bloody mary (admittedly better than Bar Toto) and the Eggs di Parma. Over-cooked, a bit greasy & the flat bread too dense- the potatoes were the best thing on the plate. Vadim ordered a similar dish with pesto replacing the prosciutto- He seemed pleased, but he's a Russian bread fiend...not exactly an accountable opinion. The best part: the breezy, awkward location and the sea foam chairs.
