"Lafayette was the scene for a lunch date for Swift and Tavi Gevinson. Chef Andrew Carmellini’s lavishly appointed bakery and brasserie is situated in a spacious corner space, with tall ceilings and big arched windows on both sides. It’s particularly nice during the daytime, with plenty of natural light and a brunch menu that includes fluffy omelets stuffed with ham and cheese, or smoked-salmon Benedict. Opt for anything involving baked goods, or come solely for the pastries (particularly the Suprême croissant)." - Melissa McCart
