10th & Piedmont and G’s Midtown wake up Tuesday nights by offering Breakfast for Dinner -- especially nice for those who are flat out overcommitted on weekends. From 5-10 p.m. on Tuesday evenings, the entire brunch menu and $6 sangria are on at these two Midtown gathering spots. That means the Southwestern sunrise burrito, vegetable panini, Southern-style steak Benedict, 10P Salad, 10P signature chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits, garden omelet, Morningside burger, the Feel Good Plate and the rest of the brunch bonanza is all “fare” game. For the record, the dinner menu is not an option during the Breakfast for Dinner special. Pajamas and fuzzy slippers? Wouldn’t go that far...but that’s your call. Information: 404-602-5510.
Who loves chicken? What about waffles with hot syrup as a breakfast staple or late night treat? Our friends at 10th & Piedmont have their hands raised and are concocting a delicious meal to combine the sweet and salty flavors. Skewering marinated chicken dipped in applewood smoked bacon waffle batter and served with North Georgia sorghum syrup, hot sauce and stone-ground grits ($10), this ain't like mama cooked 'em. Make plans for brunch where the chicken and waffles beckon your selection from the menu, along with other specialties such as the Hair of the Dog, The Champion, the Feel Good Plate that just so happen to pair perfectly with bellinis, mimosas and other brunch-y cocktails. It's 5 o'clock somewhere, right?
10th and Piedmont may be the new folks in town, but they sure know how to draw in the crowds on a lazy Sunday. The new Midtown restaurant hosts a Bellini brunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. followed by a tea dance until close.
A traditional afternoon tea dance followed garden parties in the English countryside in the 1800s and has since carried over to the States in the 1920s (think the song "Tea for Two" in the Broadway musical "No, No Nanette.") Restaurant owners and brothers Sean and Gilbert Yeremyan have modernized this tradition by bringing in a live DJ for dance music. Just like those old garden parties, there is no cover charge.
Bellinis are only available during brunch and the bubbly complements the menu of Chef Brett Ring. The multicultural and southern cuisine feature items such as "Hair of the Dog," toasted Cuban bread
topped with smoked tomatoes, Asiago cheese, two poached eggs and vodka tomato
gravy; a meaty breakfast with two eggs, link sausage, ham, toasted bread and
butter, bacon and grilled tomatoes; chicken and waffles; grits with applewood
smoked bacon, sweet corn and sorghum syrup; grilled cheese and tomato bisque;
So-Co bagel and lox; buttermilk biscuits with vodka tomato gravy and choice of
country ham sausage or bacon; as well as customary morning foods such as
blueberry pancakes, oatmeal and more.
FYI, the Yeremyan brothers also own and operate HOBNOB Neighborhood Tavern and Gilbert's Café & Bar as part of their
restaurant group, Communitas Hospitality.
