When it comes to classic French eateries in New York City, few are more iconic than SOHO's Balthazar. We sent Alex Delany to this famous brasserie to try one of everything on the breakfast menu, and we didn't send him alone. For this episode, he was joined by French-speaking pastry expert Claire Saffitz to eat way too much food and drink multiple bowls (yes, bowls) of milky coffee.

    “Do you need the pastries explained?” Claire: do you know who I am
  • @rizzogelato
    I feel like if Chris ever did this show, his bites would be indistinguishable.
  • delany: "it's airy, chewy, crispy, crunchy" me: "talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique"
  • @annarajala578
    I never realized how sweet and loveable Delany is. He has such chaotic energy in the kitchen when Claire's in the middle of things haha.
  • @themripley
    Delany has so much charisma, it is ridiculous. He's totally that guy that makes everyone feel special.
  • @jordan.d1475
    "Do you need the pastries explained?" Claire: so you have chosen death
  • @daviedarling
    awwww claire waving over the newspaper is the CUTEST
  • when they said ''eggs florentine'', i heard "eggs quarantine" and i think it's appropriate right now
  • Waiter: "Would you like an explanation of the pastries?" Claire, channeling her inner Swanson: "I know more than you."
  • @fakecubed
    I'm looking forward to Chris's tiny bites on this series someday.
