‘Why not a new meal, served around noon [
until 4pm, we say ], that starts with tea or coffee, marmalade and other breakfast fixtures before moving along to heavier fare? By eliminating the need to get up early on Sunday, [
and please also on saturday at least and any day-off or holiday really ] brunch would make life brighter for saturday— [
or any other night ] —night carousers... Brunch is cheerful, sociable and inciting [
and basically a dream come true ]. It puts you in a good temper, it makes you satisfied with yourself and your fellow beings, it sweeps away the worries and cobwebs of the week.’ Welcome to the Townhouse Kitchen. Relax, we got you!
