I
had
an
amazing
brunch/lunch
experience
at
Oak
Bistro
🌳🍽️,
located
on
1287
Cambridge
St
in
Cambridge,
MA,
this
past
Saturday,
accompanied
by
my
lovely
mom.
This
cozy
restaurant
draws
its
culinary
inspiration
from
the
vibrant
flavors
of
São
Paulo,
Brazil
🇧🇷.
To
quench
our
thirst,
we
opted
for
their
coffee
☕
and
a
classic
mimosa
🍹.
The
mimosa
was
quite
standard,
but
it
hit
the
spot,
especially
if
you’re
in
the
brunch
alcohol
mood!
🥂
We
started
our
meal
with
the
avocado
toast
🥑🍞
and
short
rib
hash
🍖🍳
from
the
brunch
menu.
The
avocado
toast
was
intriguing
with
its
unique
addition
of
mushrooms
🍄,
but
it
lacked
that
essential
touch
of
salt
or
citrus.
I’m
not
entirely
convinced
that
mushrooms
and
avocado
toast
are
a
perfect
match,
but
it
was
the
only
slightly
underwhelming
dish,
earning
a
5/10.
On
the
other
hand,
the
short
rib
hash
(8/10)
was
a
delightful
surprise.
Featuring
sweet
potatoes
🍠,
apple
bacon
🍏🥓,
and
perfectly
cooked
eggs
🍳,
it
was
a
symphony
of
flavors.
If
the
potatoes
had
been
a
bit
crispier,
it
would
have
been
a
solid
10/10!
We
couldn’t
resist
trying
the
jalapeño
cheese
cornbread
🌽🧀
served
with
Vermont
maple
whipping
butter
🍁.
It
was
delightfully
buttery,
and
as
a
cornbread
enthusiast,
I
was
in
heaven,
giving
it
an
9/10!
The
grilled
longboard
pizza
🍕
with
pepperoni,
onions,
and
arugula
was
a
winning
combination.
It
was
cooked
to
perfection
and
had
that
irresistible
cheese
pull
🧀.
Another
solid
8/10!
To
end
our
meal
on
a
sweet
note,
we
indulged
in
the
Brazilian
raindrop
beignets
🇧🇷🍩,
deep-fried
dough
balls
served
with
warm
caramel
sauce.
A
truly
cozy
and
satisfying
finish,
earning
an
8/10.
If
you’re
on
the
hunt
for
a
winter
brunch
spot
this
January,
I
highly
recommend
making
your
way
to
Oak
Bistro.
Don’t
miss
out
on
the
scrumptious
cornbread
and
delightful
beignets!
