This weekend: Maceli's brunch buffet

Thursday, March 11, 2010

Sunday afternoons often lose the fight for exciting weekend moments against Friday and Saturday nights. Maceli’s, 1031 New Hampshire St., makes sure Sunday afternoons don’t throw in the towel.

Six days out of the week Maceli’s is a banquet hall and catering company reserved for scheduled events. On Sundays from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., they open their doors to serve hungry breakfast and lunch lovers an all-you-can-eat brunch buffet.

Their buffet consists of several breakfast items including French toast or pancakes, egg entrées, breakfast meats, biscuits and gravy and many others. They also have a made-to-order omelet station, waffle station with berry sauce and vanilla sauce, as well as a yogurt bar. “We started the yogurt bar about six weeks ago,” says Laura Stephens, Maceli’s banquet captain. “People love it.”

At 10 a.m., lunch items are served. The items are different every week, says Chelsea Davidson, Maceli’s administrator. Like its lunch items, much of Maceli’s Sunday brunch changes weekly. The banquet hall serves a quiche of the day, different pastries, extra egg entrées and other variants. Chefs even create themed brunches depending on holidays or the season, such as adding turkey delicacies around Thanksgiving or chocolate-dipped strawberries around Valentine’s Day.

The adult buffet price is $13.99, but the student buffet price is $12.99. If you don’t think your appetite can tackle a buffet, check out the smaller breakfast bistro set option at $7.99, which includes a couple breakfast dishes. Maceli’s also offers complimentary juice, coffee and soda, as well as $2 Mimosas, Bloody Mary’s and Cranberry Kisses.

Wrap up your weekend right and get a bountiful breakfast at Maceli’s.
