My friend and I went to the Independent for brunch one Sunday and being the only people in there should have given us a clue. \r

I ordered the Eggs Benedict, which arrived almost a full hour after ordering, and to my surprise, instead of bacon, there was a 2"" thick slab of BACON FAT. There was seriously no red to this bacon, it was all, and I mean the ENTIRE piece was clear, greasy, bacon fat. There is no way the chef could have not known that this was inappropriate. When I tried to send it back, I was told that fatty was the way it was served, for flavoring. \r

I will never return.
Pros: there are huge windows
Cons: everything but the windows
