The 1+ hour long wait time for Moore Street Cafe was secretly a blessing in disguise because it meant FINALLY getting to try brunch at Pinky’s (@pinkysrva)! 🍳🍗🥂🥓 Pinky’s brunch has been on my list for the longest time, so though the menu is quite different from the diner food I was anticipating, I was excited to try them out. I’m telling you EVERY part of this meal was PERFECT from start to finish, and I wouldn’t change a single detail. 😱💯
We started with the mimosas which were pleasantly large and could be requested as cranberry, orange, pineapple, grapefruit, or their seasonal flavor.
For our meals, I got the Crispy Chicken Cutlet bowl and asked for it to be made spicy like the lamb bowl. 🌶️ They were able to add aleppo pepper to my bowl and exchanged the lemon dill aioli for harissa aioli. The fried chicken thigh was SO juicy and reminded me of this amazing fried chicken hummus I had at @shayarestaurant in New Orleans. 😍😩 It cut so easily and was the perfect size proportion to be served with the eggs, brunch potatoes, and greens. 🥬 Also pictured is the 2 Eggs Your Way—two eggs scrambled with asiago cheese served with bacon and a side of brunch potatoes. Both dishes were the perfect portion size and left my tummy so satisfied. 😋
Pinky’s serves brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 11AM-3PM (see menu on 7th slide). They have a stunning patio with heaters, and reservations can be made on their website. 🔥
Though this is technically a brunch post, I also wanted to shout out Pinky’s dinner because everything I’ve tried from Pinky’s thus far has been exquisite! Their Mediterranean fare is some of the best in Richmond and totally worth trying!
