After discussing brunch for a few weeks, I decided to meet up with my friend Tim one Sunday for brunch and drinks.  Since it was just the two of us, we knew we didn’t need to take advantage of an all you can drink deal, so when we stumbled into the Donnybrook on the Lower East [...]

We just told you guys about Pera’s May Meze Madness a few days ago, but we received some updates that were definitely worth sharing.
