My amazing father's birthday led my family and me to one of the most popular brunch spots in NYC: Five Points. Five Points is on many people's "Best Brunches" list, and after our brunch last week, I can see why.

Order the churros with Mexican hot chocolate ($10) for the table, they are the best churros I've had. Soft and fluffy, soothing, and wonderful.

Lemon-ricotta pancakes ($12) with Vermont maple syrup were excellent. These perfect little flapjacks with delicious flavor, had the NYC Foodie grinning wide. A side of pork-fennel sausage ($6) was also great! Juicy and tasty, they were devoured blissfully.

So for one of the best Brunches in town, head over to Five Points (weekends only); you'll be glad you did.
