having used to work at a bakery where the closing shift ended at 1:30 in the morning, i've grown to appreciate how rare it is to find a really good place to eat that's open any time of day. veselka does breakfast all day and night, and their waffles with raspberry sauce are killer (they make a mean omlette too). unfortunately my friends and I rarely get the chance to enjoy all their wonderful food...because we've gotten so addicted to their bacon burgers. a good burger with everything is hard to find in this city...at least when you want it under ten dollars. the only one i've had in manhattan to beat veselka's is at the corner bistro, which unfortunately has disappointing fries. veselka does not have this liability.
