Speaking of Brunch

Speaking of brunch, DBTH happened to be brunching this weekend at the American, one of our favorite new spots, and saw some changes. Don't worry, these are good changes. Besides the big menu, solid food and short table waits, the American has come through with an expanded dining room. No longer are those booths in front the only seating option. There are several four tops available in the back, plus a bonus outdoor patio where one can enjoy some summer heat. Or a cigarette. If you enjoy that sort of thing. Apparently, it's been that way for two weeks. Next step: A Bloody Mary license. Hopefully.

Brunch News From the Bowery

The Whole Foods on Bowery opened big a month ago. A big party, tasting events and the like. But from an insider, things haven't been going so great. The place is apparently empty during the weekdays, generating a little more traffic at night and then filling up with weekend shoppers. How do you change that? Well, WF Bowery has an idea. A little birdy writes, "I walked by Whole Foods LES tonight and saw that they will be serving brunch starting June 10. You have to talk to a custie service person to get details, but I was late for dinner." That's ok birdy. We still love you. Now, we know retail is not our specialty, but brunch definitely is. We can picture it now. A big Saturday night on the town. You wake up, feeling like $5 bucks. All you are thinking about is brunch. Solution? The City's biggest supermarket, full of bright lights, loud shoppers, and piped in market music. That's where we want to get our rancheros. And scene.
