An eggless brunch?! Can such a thing exist?
For the month of August, Feast & Graze owner Cristina Carter is launching Sunday brunch at her cafe inside the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art.
The menu features just about every brunch favorite — mimosas included — except eggs.
That brunch, called “Toast and Jams,” officially launches Sunday, Aug. 4.
While you enjoy your libation, you can enjoy music coming from the DJ in the museum rotunda. (Those are the “jams” to go with your “toasts.)
