This weekend went by so quickly that it took me a minute to realize that I spent both Friday night and Sunday in the city! Blog posts are probably the only reason I recall the sequence of events in my weekends!
I did struggle to recall what I did on Saturday though. It was the in between day in my weekend when I sort of laid low, went shopping (bought a new bra!), and oh wait, the black and white cookie happened which I shared in yesterday’s post!
I spent yesterday morning at the pool before heading into the city again. Pretty sure yesterday started the heat wave here – it’s hot!
Union Square (and Max Brenner) were the destination. Sunday’s in the city in the summer are really nice. It’s relatively quiet for city-standards and the traffic was EXTREMELY light.
We started with the onion rings. The onion rings are served with a cocoa dusted ranch dipping sauce but I don’t think I notice the cocoa flavor at all.
I chose a quinoa salad (not the exact salad name on the menu but it was a salad and it featured quinoa so let’s call it the quinoa salad) — it was good. Nothing overly amazing but good enough to order again.
And my favorite chocolate fondue! I just wish they offered more of the foods that you dip in the chocolate without having to order extra! The chocolate chip cookies are the best! Also, I always ask for a spoon so I can eat the chocolate straight-up. 🙂
In case you are interested, here are a few other posts where I recapped my meals at Max Brenner:

Recapping the weekend spent mostly in the city with dinner at Max Brenner, on the blog today! #maxbrenner #NYC #summer #chocolate #fondue Click To TweetHow was your weekend? Best thing you ate? Ever been to a Max Brenner?
Is it hot where you are?
Which bras are your favorite?
I’m definitely adding Max Brenner to my list of places to eat at in the city! The fondue looks amazing and I totally approve of the spoon for straight chocolate consumption
Definitely get there at least once – so many great dessert and chocolate options!
Oh my gosh, it has been FOREVER since I’ve been to Max Brenner’s! I used to go with my best friends in high school, and we always got the fondue. I also had a birthday dinner there once, and I remember ordering the chocolate pizza for everyone to share and also got everyone a chocolate syringe. Such good memories of that place. Thanks for reminding me! I definitely need to go back soon.
I’ve never been to a Max Brenner – I’m trying to think if they have them in the Midwest or Northwest! That fondue looks sooooo delicious!
We spent this weekend by the water too because it’s so hot here…not complaining though. 🙂
Fondue to dipping options need to be a perfect ratio. If not, it’s just a waste.
