Penelope Cafe, New York

Penelope Cafe is a cute little café that serves home-style treats in the heart of New York City's ethnic food enclave popularly known as "Curry hill." The menu at Penelope features many sandwiches, salads and pies, such as the Grilled Chicken Sandwich (served with lightly tossed greens), the Joey and Jackson Chicken Pot Pie, and the café's own version of America's ultimate comfort food, a plate of Mac and Cheese. As the café doesn't take reservations, the lines for its popular brunch which features an excellent Nuttela French Toast, are often horrendous with wait times ranging from twenty minutes to more than an hour.
