Le Pain Quotidien at 44th and Third is a Belgian bakery and restaurant in Midtown East, surrounded by offices and a steady stream of working New Yorkers. Open from 6:30am, it's the kind of place that makes a real difference to the start of a day — organic sourdough fresh from the oven, well-made specialty coffee, croissants and a breakfast menu worth sitting down for. Through the day: tartines, eggs, seasonal salads, soups and a full range of vegan and vegetarian dishes. All made with natural ingredients, and organic wherever possible. Dine in or take away — open daily.
