Coffee and a Conversation

As Told Over Brunch is a home for intelligent discourse from the twenty-something perspective - so the stuff you gossip about over mimosas on Sunday morning or over takeout on your friend's couch when happy hour ends too early. We love chatting about our lives, whether it be the relationships we’re building (or destroying), lessons we've learned at work, struggles at school, growing pains we've felt, or even the food we’re talking over.

Brunch Review: Back to The Camel

The Camel

May 08, 2016 by Cazey Williams in Cazey's Column, Richmond Brunch Review

Sara brunched at The Camel this past December when The Camel first got involved in Richmond Brunch Weekend, but since then, they’ve updated their brunch menu, which called for another visit. I showed up a few Sundays ago with my old college roommate.

We decided to walk since it was a gorgeous (read: warm and sunny) Sunday afternoon. We went late, i.e. we started walking over at 1:40 PM. I figured it was a mile stroll. Just in case brunch stopped at 2 PM, I told my roommate we had to hustle. Inevitably, we showed up after 2 PM, but brunch was still going, praise be to the tater tots or whoever.

The Camel is also a music venue. This was technically my second time there, but the first time had been to see a high school classmate perform in a show at night. (We actually never stayed for the show because he didn’t perform until 10 PM on a Sunday, and grandpa me had to be up at 5:30 AM Monday. Sorry, we’re not all rockers here.)

Brunch Review: The Camel

Considering The Camel is located in a distant backyard of the first house I lived in in Richmond, I find it rather insane that this was my first time eating here. My ex-roommate and I were in search of a brunch place with cheap mimosa pitcher in Richmond, and found out that The Camel fit our criteria. Since neither of us had been, it seemed like the perfect idea.

We wandered in around 11 AM and were happy to find plenty of open seats. We picked two seats at the bar, and ordered our pitcher of mimosa. It was a good mimosa, but favored more orange juice than I usually pour myself (although it is probably illegal to make mimosas like I make myself).
