Eggs can't travel all the way back to our place so we ate in the car. Note the improvised tray from home 😄. Breakfast was delish! Lemon ricotta pancakes, Applewood smoked bacon, chorizo, and yummy  potatoes, great Fratello coffee. All takeout packaging was compostable, naturally. Thanks and Hang in there Queens!!
