Get it together for Boxing Day brunch

POSTED: Wednesday, December 26, 2012, 11:20 AM

So, look: we're willing to bet that if you're off today, you've just rolled out of bed (or, who are we kidding, leaned over and dragged whatever device you're reading this on into bed with you) with a touch of a holiday hangover. And if you're anything like us, the idea of ordering up a big meal of various things smothered in foie gras mornay sounds oddly appealing, despite your oath last night not to eat again for a week.

Alternately, if you're anything like a healthy person, you've probably got kale salad or raw oysters on the brain. Either way, Pub and Kitchen (1946 Lombard St.) has a Boxing Day brunch menu on today that should set you right; click through to see the whole pitch-perfect thing. Best part: the special menu is actually on until 11 p.m., so even if you don't really see yourself pulling it together anytime soon, you're fine.

By the by, only one thing actually comes smothered in foie gras mornay. So if you do ask for it all over everything on the table, please don't tell them it was our idea, because man what an annoying request!
