Like happy hour or a coffee break, brunch is quickly becoming a regular dining occasion. Once reserved for Easter and special events, this weekend tradition now needs no excuse for one to partake. Between the bottomless Veuve mimosas and endless sweet offerings, Sunday brunch at Highball & Harvest at The Ritz-Carlton is not to be missed.
Their new Sunday brunch features fresh-off-the-farm ingredients sourced from area farms and the resort’s own 7,000-square-foot garden. These ingredients are transformed into Southern comfort food like Smoked Pork Eggs Benedict with BBQ Hollandaise and Pecan-Smoked Bacon and Country Potatoes.
With an ever-changing seasonal menu, there’s plenty of reasons to return as the seasons change. In addition to endless pastries, you’ll find familiar brunch fare such as the omelet station and cold water oysters. For your savory side there’s offerings such as Rosemary Rubbed Prime Rib or Smoked Pork Loin with Sweet Potato Puree and Bacon-Glazed Brussels Sprouts. The menu’s “Chopped and Chilled” section showcases salads like Bourbon Marinated Fruit Salad as well as a savory kale option. And while the menu items are largely on the savory side, their selection of sugar should end up on your plate. Between endless glasses of bubbles, a myriad of tastes and dessert for days – make sure you put this brunch on your weekend rotation.
Brunch (served alongside live music) is served on Sundays from 12 to 2 p.m. for $58 for adults and $20 for children ages 12 and younger. And why not round out your morning of luxury with an afternoon at the spa? Reservations can be made by calling (407) 393-4422 or through OpenTable. See you at the Ritz.
