What I wrote thereFold it away
In a brunch world dominated by waffles and eggs, Rule of Thirds is a breath of fresh air. Styled after Izakaya restaurants (informal Japanese bars with light fare), the menu offers an exciting assortment of sharable plates like striped bass sashimi and cold somen noodles served with tomato dashi and red crab.
The term “Izakaya,” loosely translates to “stay-drink-place,” perfectly encapsulating the intention of this popular Brooklyn brunch spot.
Sticking with theme, my recommendation is to get the Japanese breakfast set (roasted bluefish, short grain rice, seasonal vegetables and velvety miso soup) and souffle pancake (fluffy hotcake, honey maple butter, sesame).
Unless you frequent Japan, there’s a high probability the souffle pancake is unlike anything you’ve ever tried before. Seriously, it’s my single-favorite Brooklyn brunch dish, don’t miss it.
