When people say "brunch" in the UK, my mind immediately thinks delicious stacks of french toast, maple syrup, endless cups of coffee, fresh fruit and home fries. Of course, that is the "American" in me, because brunch does not mean any of those things in London (except maybe the coffee part). It means baked beans, roasted tomatoes and who knows what else. Guys, I want an American brunch EVERY Sunday. I miss that about DC. DC may not do a lot of food right, but they definitely nailed it with brunch (and happy hour, but that is for a different post).
So when I wake up Sunday mornings, ready to grub, I want to magically transport myself to one of these little gems:
1. Napoleon, DC: coffees, crepes, decor, service---all fantastic! I am sorry I didn't get to it until my last Sunday in DC
2. Meadow Mountain Cafe, Colorado: Don't even get me started on their amazing home made bread and jam. This quaint cafe is near Boulder. I haven't been there in years, but the next time I am in Colorado, I plan on making a trip.
3. The Tabard Inn, DC: doesn't the name say it all?
4. Le Peep, Colorado: favorite college brunch place with fantastic gooey buns and yummy skillets. Although I heard its not as good as it used to be. Boo!
5. Cafe du Soleil, SF: Mmmm, yummy french toast, hot chocolate and pastries. What more do you want out of brunch?

Friday morning my sister and I went to IHOP to have breakfast. We shared Chicken Florentine crepes. Delicious! Whenever you come to CO I would be happy to go to either brunch place. :) Did you every go to The Original Pancake House? YUM!
ReplyDeleteOk - only one for SF?!what about kate's kitchen!
ReplyDeleteDid not like Kate's kitchen. Their biscuits and gravy sucked and so did their potatoes. If you can't do homefries you can't do breakfast. That is my rule.
