Enjoying Brunch the Best Way Imaginable

So, it's not a restaurant review and not a tasty discovery around town but a delicious brunch I enjoyed at my friend's garden and wanted to share with you. How many times have we thought of hosting a brunch at home - something original, tasty and impressive to your guests? My brunch was enjoyable and choices on display were vast...I think this post will shed light on some ideas...

We reached at 10:30am and saw long buffets of heavenly choices already setup just waiting to be devoured. There was a bread section, another for the dairy products, a third for meat items, and another filled with desserts and sweets as well as two live cooking stations preparing eggs and saj manakish. The food offered:

To accompany this rich choice of food was a bar where any morning craving is available:
  • Nescafé, Nespresso, alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, water, milk and cereals.
A lovely Sunday spent with friends and my family. Rich and varied, the brunch started at 10:30am and ended at 4pm with Saj-Nutella freshly made... It was an ongoing feast. We had fun, puffed some cigars, laughed and enjoyed our time - all with a big smile.
