My husband, the sweetbreads fanatic in our house, has had them at Veritas as an appetizer and says they were terrific.  According to their web site, a sweetbreads preparation is on the current appetizer menu (updated 6/16/04).

I just had these last night at an all-out spectacular dinner at Veritas, and cannot urge enthusiasts enough to run down and sample them as well. Superb. Even the offalphones at the table (why is it people are convinced that sweetbreads are really brains?), whom I shamed into trying teeny bites, were impressed.

Food, glorious food!

“Eat! Eat! May you be destroyed if you don’t eat! What sin have I committed that God should punish me with you! Eat! What will become of you if you don’t eat! Imp of darkness, may you sink 10 fathoms into the earth if you don’t eat! Eat!” (A. Kazin)

When I was at L'Impero a few months ago, we had crispy sweetbreads with a meslun salad that was excellent (simple, well-prepared sweetbreads and a nice hot-cold contrast). At the time is was a special.
