Maggie Brown

Today Amber and I had to move our brunching activities up by a day as we will be busy tomorrow trying to get her mother back to New Jersey so that she can catch her bus back to D-Rock. This weekend's brunching activity was to Maggie Brown.

Maggie Brown is a converted ground floor of a brownstone. You walk in and it is nothing but atmosphere. They are trying to go for a relaxed old world style. They key to this place is all in the details. All of the wine glasses are in different shaped glasses though we were assured that they are all the same size glass. When we noticed that the glasses were different sizes we were compensated with some complementary OJ just to make sure. The bartender got a nice little tip for her trouble.

Breakfast was great. I had an Omlette with Spinach, mushrooms, and Brie complemented with salad and home fries. The salad had a raspberry dressing on it. Now that I think about it the jelly that they had for the biscuits was raspberry. Even their butter was raspberry flavored. I guess that you could say they they restaurant had a raspberry theme. Amber had French Toast that was topped with kiwi and strawberries. Amber thought that the French Toast was pretty mediocre; it was pretty bland actually. Amber's mother had Buttermilk Pancakes and a side of chicken sausage (very classically split down the middle and topped with parsley).
