Potato Waffle Benedict
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}(The Smith)
At NYC's brunch standy-by The Smith waffles make a savory debut. Fluffy potato waffles are topped with perfectly poached eggs and smothered with caramelized onions and house-made spinach pesto. Chef/Owner Glenn Harris loves this dish because it's a playful twist on a classically sweet stand-by.
