"I love brunch for many reasons. It’s a way to keep the party going, to enjoy family and friends with the things that truly make all of us smile: pancakes, bacon, Bloody Marys, Champagne... and you never see anyone giving you an evil eye when you order a second or third Bloody Mary. Brunch is more a celebration of life and seizing the day. The weekend is yours!"
—Johnny Rivera (co-owner of Hash House A Go Go, Tractor Room, Great Maple)
