Bring on the Brunch

After returning home last week to Austin for a brief visit with my family, things have already turned into preparations for farewells. My younger brother leaves for college in just a week, and I return to school a few days after.

To celebrate his new adventure we took brunch at The Four Seasons’ restaurant Trio, which only reaffirmed my belief in brunch as the king of meals. Free flowing champagne, Eggs Benedict, chilled seafood galore, and a pastry selection all before noon usually adds up to a pretty good day.

I will say I was disappointed by how many people thought that crab claws and bubbly went perfectly with flip-flops and t-shirts, but I’ll just leave it at that. Who else out there is a brunch devote? Other thoughts on decadent eating?
