Brunch is the new thing.  Did you hear?  Several new restaurants in Oakland just started serving brunch and it looks promising.  I’ve been to all of these spots for dinner, so I’m really looking forward to checking out the brunch menu.  Go and let me know what you think!

    Hog’s Apothecary opened last year and just unveiled their brunch menu on Tuesday with a “Breakfast 4 Dinner Party.”  They mentioned Chicken & Waffles, Biscuits & Gravy, Housemade Bacon and a Pork & Beef Burger.  Yes please!  After this week, the restaurant will be open 7 days a week.

    Juhu Beach Club opened over a year and a half ago and just started serving brunch this past weekend. There’s something called a Doswaffle on the menu, which is part South Indian dosa and part Belgian Style Waffle.  I’m intrigued.  It’s gluten-free and they’re serving versions with Nutella and Banana ($13) and with Fried Chicken n Doswaffle ($15).

    Kingston 11 opened last year and just started serving brunch a couple months ago.  In addition to their amazing cocktails, you can also order Jamaican Breakfast, which is ackee and saltfish, with fried dumplings, sweet plantains, and bammy.
