A tradition that began in England somewhere in the 1890s, is now a sought after excuse to simply gather with loved ones and make a day of it. What makes brunch truly enjoyable is the relaxed and leisurely atmosphere it provides, allowing friends and family to come together and bond over tea (both physical and metaphorical, iykwim) while savouring delicious food without the rush of a typical mealtime. While how you spend your brunch is up to you, we are here with five delectable suggestions to add to the fun and cater to various tastes and preferences.
