Default Christmas morning brunch

Anyone know of a restaurant that has a good Christmas morning brunch? Does Katie Belle's have one?

I was going to but I broke my elbow -- cooking is rather difficult right now.

I for one sure hope not. That day SHOULD be reserved for family and I'm sure those folks working there have family of their own and I bet they would like to spend time with them at home.... Where we should be too.

Just an idea, buy a quiche, some fresh cut up fruit and voila!

Quite simply, I tripped, landed on one arm and pushed the radius into the humerus (and, no, I wasn't laughing), broke the radius cap. Would be nice if they could splint it or cast it, but no such luck -- don't use it (HA!) and wear a sling. Stupid thing hurts like the dickens.

I often thought the same thing when I worked all those holidays over the years! (had to be said)
Many people don't have families to be with and just might rather be working, hoping patrons will be a bit more generous on Christmas or glad for the overtime. An elderly couple hosting a houseful might just be better off taking the group to a brunch. People here on Lifestyle visits can't cook in the rentals.
C'mon over to my place, Red. I'll fix ya up a plate of scrambled!

Agreed! I was a nurse and worked many Christmases--even when I had little ones at home.

For most people, it's human nature to want to be with your family on Christmas day but the retail industry is a different animal. IMHO - I found almost all businesses were closed and to find a place to eat will require some calling around.

It sounds like it is very painful. Hope you feel better Red.

Red, so sorry to hear about your injury and discomfort. I wish you a speedy and full recovery. Thank goodness for us, you're still able to type in the meantime!
