I chose Charlie Marshal’s eponymous restaurant for its proximity to where my dining partners were off to see A Beautiful Noise at the Neil Simon theatre. With brunch cocktails de rigueur, we began with them; two of us ordered the Bloody Mary ($12) and two the Bloody Caesar ($13), made with clam juice.

With our drinks, we devoured their yummy (not to be missed) wood-oven baked biscuits with Beth’s Farm sour cherry preserves and house-churned honey bacon butter (small $8.50).

One frittata, made with Bulich Farm sauteed mushrooms, arugula and parmesan, came served with thick-cut bacon and roasted potatoes ($17.50). The 12-inch breakfast pizza ($21.50) is topped with aged mozzarella, Bulich Farm sautèed mushrooms and three eggs. I sampled their braised local short rib hash ($19.50) topped with poached eggs and served with bacon. These three were so hearty we couldn’t finish!

Also good is the local burrata served with homemade herbed breadsticks, basil walnut pesto and roasted cherry tomatoes with aged balsamic vinegar ($24.50) and Charlie’s slow-cooked Greenane farm’s baby back ribs with a dry chili rub with brown sugar chili glaze ($19.50) with the meat falling off the bone.

I recommend a visit to The Marshal.
