Brunch at Oh My Darling (Dining out review)

Syracuse, N.Y. — The thing we liked best from our dinnertime visit to Oh My Darling three years ago was how the kitchen made the most from simple flavors by pairing them together to create a complementary finished product.

We recently returned for Sunday brunch and found the same story at a different time. Take the lemon ricotta pancakes ($16), for instance. The stack of three cakes was fluffy and dense with slightly crispy edges. Though the batter is merely a blend of dairy and flour, there was a richness to each bite. Homemade lemon curd painted across the top of each pancake offered a tangy brightness, while fresh berries brought color and a hint of sweetness. Ramekins of syrup and butter sat untouched, as the blend of flavors was just right.
