Blueprint Cafe Great Food
May 2021 I went to the Blueprint Cafe, 369 Raymond Blvd., Newark, NJ in the East Ferry area of Newark, New Jersey. There were several people there having breakfast. Usually when I notice a crowd of people, then I know this is going to be a good place to eat.
When you walk up to the restaurant you will notice the outdoor sitting with tables made of rock and rocks lying on the tables with metal chairs around the tables. There are white and blue vertically striped curtains hanging in front of some of the windows. I would have loved to have sat outside but unfortunately this time of year has been a little cold.
As you go into the restaurant you will notice a big print on the wall. The print says, “Blue Print Cafe”, and has a picture of a blueprint on the wall. In front of the wall there are wooden tables with metal chairs around them. On each table you will have a small boutique of flowers. There is a sitting area to the left as you walk in the door with a small table and nice comfortable chairs. As you look forward toward the counter you can see the kitchen where the food is being prepped. And it looks very clean which is always a good thing. There is a variety of baked goods located at the counter you can choose from. Once you get to the counter the host will ask if it is a to go order or if you would like to be seated.
The Food
The food there is delicious. I went there for several days. The first time I went I had scrambled eggs and skillet potatoes. The eggs were good, while the potatoes were seasoned and really good. There is a lot of food to choose from, and each dish will be sure to fill you up. I enjoyed a cup of Americano coffee while having such a good breakfast.
The next time I went there I had Nana pancakes and this is one of the most delicious breakfast meals I have ever had. The pancakes are buttermilk pancakes with bananas in them. You can actually see the bananas in the pancakes. The pancakes have powdered sugar and walnuts on top. Just describing this I could eat some Nana’s pancakes right now. My son read about the Nana pancakes and asked me to take him there so he can try these delicious pancakes.
The Stuffed French Toast is another favorite of mine. The Stuffed French Toast has mascarpone and a berry compote on top. The french toast has thick pieces of bread and is absolutely delicious. Many people do not know what mascarpone is so I will try to explain for those that do not know. Mascarpone cheese is made from heavy cream and some type of acidic fruit like oranges or lemons. This dish has an orange flavor.
Another thing I would like to add. The restaurant has clean bathrooms. I always look at the restaurant restrooms when I go into a place.
Blueprint is a great place for families to get together. The staff is friendly and I was always greeted with a smile when I would walk in the restaurant. The restaurant is good for the industry on East Ferry and a great location for the workers who work in the industrial area along the Passaic River to grab a bite to eat. The restaurant is good for husbands and wives to meet at lunch break to have a good meal or even someone who you might be dating if you want to grab a bite to eat.
So if you visit Newark, New Jersey in the East Ferry area go by and visit the Blueprint Cafe. The food is great.
