brooklyn brunch

Maison Premiere

Yesterday I stopped by Williamsburg to brunch at Maison Premiere. The great thing is you can make a reservation online! I absolutely hate waiting (who doesn't?).  

Food

We stumbled upon their oyster happy hour and ordered 10 oysters for $10!—$1 each. The oysters were very fresh and well prepared. All of them were very tasty and enjoyable. I prefer the smaller oysters, none of them were too meaty. They have oyster happy hour Monday to Friday from 4-7pm and Saturday and Sundays from 11am to 1pm.

We ordered the butter scone and it was perfectly warm and crumbly. It was not too sugary—just the right amount of sweetness. For entrees, we ordered the duck hash and baked eggs with andouille. The eggs were perfectly poached. They really know how to poach eggs. The spicy andouille went very well with the tomato jam and spinach. 

Overall a very light brunch. It paired well with the oysters. Initially, we were a bit skeptical because we thought it may have been a bit early for oysters. But not at all. I highly recommend it.

Ambiance

It reminded me of Milky & Honey in that the decor and ambiance were similar to that 1920s prohibition style. They also offer garden seating that is open during the spring and summer. 

Quality

Quality is definitely excellent. Everything seemed fresh and well prepared. 

Price

Very reasonably priced. Between two people, we ordered oysters, biscuits, two entrees and a pot of tea, and each paid about $28 per person including tax and tip.

Entrees range from $11-16 per plate.
