We’re such whores for brunch. Scones, benedicts, diner toast, hash browns, scrambles, pancakes, omelets, French toast, bacon (oh God, bacon). All of it. We love it. Top it off with some coffee or tea and we’re done for.
A little bit about our blog:
As we’re all students, we can’t afford to eat brunch out as often as we’d like, but here’s how we’re breaking it down. A small profile of the restaurant: What’s the atmosphere like? Who eats here? How much are you going to spend for your breakfast favorites? Then, by our specific meals: What are its strengths and weaknesses? What are our general overall impressions? Would we recommend it? And finally, our fool-proof muffin rating system.
1 Muffin: Pitiful excuse for a brunch. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. ASHAMED.
2 Muffins: Meh. It’s okay. I guess this is slightly better than I could make for myself at home.
3 Muffins: Some of our brunchiness has been enjoyable. Some of it has been lacking.
4 Muffins: Damn. You’ve got a good thing going on here. Kudos.
5 Muffins: HOLY HELL THIS IS A BRUNCH FITS FOR GODS. Gods, we say!
We’re three roommates located in Boston, Massachusetts. Kindly allow us to introduce ourselves.
Melissa—
Loves: Potatoes in every format. Grilled muffins. Mushrooms.
Dealbreakers: Bananas. Get those terrible things and their byproducts away from me. Rude customers/waitstaff.
Weaknesses: Pie.
Nicola—
Loves: The tomato-basil-mozzarella trifecta. Anything potato-based, really. And a good cup of tea.
Deal-breakers: Let it be known that historically, I hate eggs and mushrooms. Have all of my life. But in the last two years I have made it my mission to overcome that revulsion. Why? So I would be free to peruse the length of any breakfast menu. No longer will I be constrained to pancakes, French toast, and waffles! Vive la revolution!
Weaknesses: Pine nuts, avocado, rhubarb.
Sarah –
Loves: Eggs. Anything I can spread butter on. Bring the little piggy home from the market because I love bacon. Bacon. More bacon, please. Also, asparagus.
Deal-breakers: Soggy home fries. Coffee that isn’t scorch-your-tongue hot. Bad hollandaise.
Weaknesses: Cheese. Fresh fruit. Any kind of baked good. Lox. Quiche.
