Spanish-inspired brunch by day, tapas by night on Mass Ave
I think I just found my new favorite neighborhood restaurant. Let me tell you all about it.
Where to go: Crema, the coffee shop and breakfast restaurant that moonlights as the Mass Ave tapas and cocktail bar Almost Famous.
No matter when you go, you'll find a menu of Spanish-inspired drinks and dishes unlike anything else on the avenue.
Plus: The vibe is fun and funky.
What to order: Huevos a la flamenca, a traditional Spanish egg dish that's reminiscent of shakshuka.
A giant bowl of fried potatoes, peppers, eggplant and onion cooked with a red sauce is topped with a sunny-side up egg and thick slices of toast.
It's flavorful, hearty and enough for at least two meals.
Cost: $14
💭 My thought bubble: The menu is so fun and original, it was hard to choose.
Next time, I'm getting the torrija — a Spanish take on French toast that's got a marcona almond crumble. Swoon.
If you go: 721 Mass Ave.
