Happy Friday brunch lovers! Have you all noticed that on Friday everything just seems a little better? That asshole on the train is a little nicer, coffee taste like sweet nectar of the Gods , you may not want to punch people in your office that you normally want to before consumption of aforementioned nectar and with every passing moment the glorious weekend gallops towards us. This weekend brings an extended treat as its Memorial Day weekend! On Monday we remember all those that lost their life in service to our country while in active duty, Thank you a million times to these Men and Women who played an integral part in the lives of people just like you and me being able to enjoy our freedom. As such this weekend is also traditionally characterized by the dusting off of the grills, the gathering of family and friends, spending time with loved ones, and the unofficial kick off of summer fun.
Whether you are a native New Yorker,a tourist popping in to town or coming back from some time away we are determined to give you an awesome hit list of destinations with Al fresco spaces to kick off your Summer Brunching. After being locked inside almost all week, held hostage to random bouts of extended rain and well a brutal winter we know everyone wants to get outside and play! The babes are dying to spend as much outdoor time as possible. *While last year we were giving the Guido's a run for their money at the Jersey Shore this year we are putting our fist pumps and hair gel away and keeping it local. ( Side note we love Italian food, wine and men)
Note to Brunchers: Local does not have to mean boring!
We personally feel there is nothing like sitting with friends outdoor, sharing a meal with friends& family all while sipping on a refreshing cocktail with your oversize shades to scream VACATION MODE! So get ready to be armed and fabulous here,s your guide to a selection of Al fresco brunching that will have you saying so were meeting at the hotel pool bar later right. Enjoy!
