There’s nothing better than enjoying fun and fancy brunch with friends and family during the weekend. While this social tradition typically calls for an outing, we believe that you can have just as much fun in your Weidner Apartment. Brunch is a state of mind, and by using the tips below, you can create a fun festivity in your own home.
Set Up a Buffet-Style Kitchen With All the Fixin’s
One of the many things universally enjoyed about brunch is the abundance of options. Give yourself the same freedom of options by setting out your breakfast dishes in a buffet style. For example, if waffles are your staple food item, lay out a selection of sweet and savory toppings like fried chicken, strawberries, whipped cream, and syrup. You can also offer the same setup with drinks! We recommend some delicious pomegranate as the base with different flavors and add-ins to spice things up.
Cook What You Can Ahead of Time & Keep it Simple
Brunch is all about the relaxing vibes, and stressing in the kitchen is the last thing you should be doing. Figure out what you can cook the night before to save some time in the morning. Things like pastries, waffles, and garnishes can typically last overnight and will reduce same-day hassle. For things that can’t be prepared ahead of time, try to keep them as simple as possible. To make brunch even simpler, choose to serve items that you can set and forget in the oven, crock-pot, etc.
Create a Fun Atmosphere
Whether or not the food was superb, most times, you walk away from brunch feeling great; the same goes for brunch at home. As long as you have fun and surround yourself with people you love, it won’t matter if the food is gourmet. As you decorate your apartment in the morning, let your creative juices flow and set up a Pinterest-worthy table.
Instead of waiting an hour for a table at your local trendy brunch spot this weekend, consider hosting your own at home utilizing the steps above. Let us know how it goes in the comments below.
