Poll of the Week - 11.9.2009

Breakfast and lunch can be separated by as many as three different and distinct meals: second breakfast (loved by Bavarians, and served at 10:30), elevenses (served at 11:00, and adored by such characters as Paddington Bear and Winnie the Pooh), and brunch. Of these three meals, only brunch has really caught on in America, and it has become the perfect excuse to indulge in breakfast foods after noon.  Sunday Brunch is especially popular, and is well loved by girlfriends sharing gossip, mothers and their doting children, and hungover twenty-somethings recovering from the weekend’s activities.

In this week’s “Poll of the Week”, Little Scarlet asks what is your favorite brunch food?


One of the best things about brunch is that even with these basic menu items, there can be such great variety: pancakes are loaded full of blueberries or chocolate chips, Eggs Benedict’s delicate, poached eggs rest on top of crisp, salty Canadian bacon or sweet, succulent lobster, and an omelette’s filling is limited only by the chef’s imagination! Tell Little Scarlet the best way to eat your favorite brunch food in the Comments section, below!
