Croton’s newest Spanish tapas bar and restaurant Sala on Hudson (sister to NYC’s Sala One Nine) recently introduced their weekend brunch. The menu features tapas, a variety of bocadillos aka “sandwiches,” and brunch classics with a Spanish twist.

We tried several items on Sala’s brunch menu, starting with the Torrijas, a plate of French toast served with Pedro Ximenez syrup and an apple compote. The French toast is crispy on the outside, and creamy inside. Drizzle some of the sweet Sherry syrup and you’ll be indulging (and Mmm-ing) in every savory bite. If you like paella, we highly recommend the Revuelto de Paella, a chicken paella made with scrambled eggs and served with a piece of pan tumaca).

The Huevos Estrellados is an excellent dish to try. It starts off with a layer of perfectly cooked poor man’s potatoes topped with a fried egg and strips of Serrano ham. The savory Huevos al Horno (Saffron tomato sauce, Idiazable cheese, pan tumaca) is also a great meal.

Brunch isn’t complete without an alcoholic beverage. All dishes can be paired with homemade sangria, Spanish boutique wines, draft beer or cocktails, including Salamosas, a delicious blend of sangria, orange juice and cava. Another great item is El Durazno, made with Cava and peach. If you prefer a drink with some bite, try their version of a Bloody Mary – the Moorish Maria, made with Blat (Spanish) vodka, and a spicy moorish mix.
Brunch is offered Saturdays and Sundays from 11-4pm.
