Corinne, a new brunch spot, is now open in downtown San Antonio.
State of play: The restaurant, which opened at the newly renovated Plaza Hotel in January, has a vibrant yet tranquil atmosphere. Unlike other buzzy brunch places of its caliber, it feels relaxed, with tucked-away booths and natural contemporary design elements.
- It was the perfect spot to start a slow Sunday morning.
Yes, but: Corinne serves lunch and dinner in addition to its morning menus.
We tried the grilled chicken tinga, banana pancakes and a nonalcoholic melon and berry drink.
- The chicken tinga was interesting because it's similar to a stacked version of chilaquiles as it was served with a fried egg. The stacking method kept the tostadas crispier rather than being smothered by the toppings.
- The banana pancakes were fluffy, and the powdered sugar made it feel like a skip ahead to dessert.
What's next: Anaqua Garden Bar is also located in the hotel and will likely become a hot spot as the weather warms up.
