My name is Jackie and I have loved Mac n Cheese since I was a toddler. I grew up eating Kraft Mac n Cheese. As soon as I could order for myself in restaurants I always picked Mac n Cheese if it was an option. I soon earned the nickname Mackie Jackie. This blog will be devoted to my Mac n Cheese adventures. I will share some of my past favorites and then continue to post each new cheesy adventure. Happy reading and eating!

Ulysses' Folk House

Restaurant: Ulysses' Folk House
Address: 95 Pearl Street / 58 Stone Street - New York, NY 10004
Website: http://www.ulyssesfolkhouse.com/main.html
Name on the Menu: Brunch Buffet Option and Carvery Lunch Side-Mac & Cheese
Price: Included in Brunch-$20 or Included in Carvery Lunch-prices vary

This is my favorite brunch item at Ulysses', it has yet to disappoint. They use elbow macaroni that is perfectly tender. The mac is baked and the top has a crust of bread crumbs. The bread crumbs add the perfect amount of crunch to the mac. There isn't a lot of sauce, but it doesn't need to be drowning in sauce. Each piece of macaroni has the perfect amount of sauce attached to it. The color of the sauce is pale yellow and has a tangy cheese flavor. It tastes like a southern style Mac n Cheese. This is probably because they use a lot of butter. If you happen to get the bottom of the pan you will get the noodles that are soaked from the butter. Try to ask for a top or middle portion. A small bowl of this is quite filling.

I give this mac 4 wedges, it would have been rated higher if there was a little less butter.
