Why You Should Brunch This Weekend (Including Tonight)
If someone hasn't texted, Gchatted, emailed, or called you already asking what you're doing tonight, then they're going to soon. And we have an answer for you:
You're going to brunch tonight.
Lobster Bennie at Max's on Broad. See you there?
And you're going to brunch all weekend.
Why is that?
Continental Divide
Well, it's...
It starts tonight. 5 - 9 PM at Southern Railway Taphouse:
- Come get free brunch appetizers (sponsored by OrderUp)
- Taste the delicious new Alliance Ale from Steam Bell Beer Works (this is the premiere event!), which has already been written about by the Richmond Times-Dispatch (just saying...)
- Listen to live music from Suzie and the G-Tones
- Hang out with some mascots from U of R, VCU, and the Richmond Flying Squirrels on a red carpet (don't worry, no gowns or tuxes required!)
- Oh, and did we mention win free gift cards to 3 Monkeys, Continental Divide, Maggiano's Little Italy, Postbellum, The Camel, or Grandstaff & Stein Booksellers?
So we'll see you there, right?
Did we mention 10% of sales tonight go to VCU Massey Cancer Center?
And then you get to wake up Saturday and go brunch!
There are 18 restaurants to choose from Saturday...
