  • About
Brunch for two can be a joint kitchen affair, shared in front of a fire, on the terrace, or in the garden. You can also take it, and yourselves, back to bed. However you celebrate the late-morning meal, here are some ideas to increase your pleasure:
  • For a special breakfast treat, scramble eggs slowly in butter to the desired doneness, season with freshly ground black pepper, and top the eggs with black caviar.
  • Celebrate the morning with Champagne, fresh raspberries and cream, croissants with butter and Brie cheese, eggs any way you like them, and café au lait.
  • Stock a small bedside refrigerator with fresh orange juice, vodka, Scotch salmon, cream cheese with chives, fresh lemon, and bagels. If you want hot coffee, you’ll have to get out of bed. Sorry!
