Café Orlin is one of the most popular brunch spots in the East Village. Judging by the large crowds constantly swarming around, outside the joint.

I know that every time I had walked by this place, not only was it packed, but a sizeable crowd had formed outside, waiting for a table.

They don’t take reservations, which can often create a shit show scenario.

Here’s what’s in store for you at Café Orlin: Pumpkin Pancakes topped with Cinnamon Yogurt.

Forget about anything else.

Sure, they have a decent sized Mediterranean menu. But those pancakes….they’re necessary. And with all the beta carotene naturally found in pumpkin, you’re sure to walk away with zero guilt, feeling lighter than air.

There’s a large indoor area for eating, but if it’s nice out, make sure to eat outside. It’s very pretty out there. And the lighting is better for when you Instagram the crap out of those pancakes. You’re sure to get double the amount of your usual likes.

After all, isn’t that what matters most in life? How many likes your life gets….
