Pil Pil

The Upper East Side has a lot of hidden gems, and Pil Pil is at the very top of that list. A traditional Spanish tapas restaurant with a New York City twist, this restaurant is perfect for dates, catching up with friends, or having brunch with family. (Their brunch menu features selections from three different regions of Spain, so it’s fun to mix and match with whomever you’re with!) All of their savory dishes are great, but this item off the dessert menu is a true stunner: Traditional pan tres leches (milk cake) accompanied by strawberries, oranges, whipped cream, and caramel sauce. To die for!
