While you can find all of my brunch posts under the “Food” category, occasionally I will be posting about my brunches on weekend getaways and travel. For your convenience, I’ve created this DC brunch page. You can easily find only my DC area brunch posts here.
“On weekends, we brunch…” but let’s be honest, there are some weekends when you just want to do absolutely nothing! You know, those messy hair, braless, don’t-get-out-of-your-pajamas all day kind of weekends where cuddling with “bae,” or curling up with a good read, or just cozying in the sheets with Netflix is the only thing on your weekend agenda. Well the Saturday I ended up at Fig & Olive was intended to be one of those days. It was a…
Imagine biting into a waffle stuffed with fresh lobster meat! I know… sounds heavenly doesn’t it (cues hallelujah music)? Well I’m just here to tell you that there’s a place in DC that you can find this delicacy and it’s called B Too. Located on 14th street in the Logan Circle neighborhood, B Too is a Belgian restaurant whose brunch menu has so much swag it could very well be the Beyoncé of DC brunches. I first tried B Too’s lobster…
Shaw has surely stepped up its restaurant game lately with the opening of many new hot spots in the past two years. Convivial is one such restaurant, which brought fancy French-American fare to the neighborhood. The restaurant opened in 2015 and has already made its mark in the District, earning the #4 spot in Washingtonian’s “100 Very Best Restaurants.” The fried chicken and waffle, Convivial’s most popular brunch dish, has taken Instagram by storm. It was teasing my taste buds for way…
I first heard about Fuego Cocina from a coworker who raved about it being her go-to brunch spot in Clarendon. When she mentioned that it was just $19 for a three course Mexican meal with $2 brunch cocktails, this Brunch Belle may have gotten a tad too exited. Let’s be honest… this brunching lifestyle can get expensive! A brunch entrée alone can cost almost $19 at many DC restaurants; and three course or bottomless DC brunches usually run between $29 to $39. So I…
If you are a Washingtonian, you are likely aware that Tabard Inn’s brunch has become a staple of Washington, DC, long holding the coveted spot as the city’s best brunch. So naturally I had to make it the subject of my first DC brunch post. I am a bit ashamed to admit however, that I only recently tried their brunch menu. I know what you are thinking… how can I call myself the Brunch Belle right? But hold up; don’t…

Listen... last night was TOO LIT! 🔥 I don’t know what exactly I was expecting at the #RAMMYS but I most certainly was not expecting the LITUATION that was last night!
If you’re not aware, The RAMMYS is an annual Awards Gala presented by @ramwdc celebrating and recognizing DC area restaurants, chefs, and foodservice community. Basically like The Grammys for food! 🤗 So you know the food was plenty and the drinks were flowing at every turn. The vibes and energy was just all around amazing and the DJ kept the party on 💯! Turn down for what! 💃🏾🎶 It was the perfect date night! Of course Bae and I had to do the classic couple’s “carpet pose!” [Swipe Left] Did we nail it or are we just corny AF? 😩😂
Also who’s going to The RAMMYS next year? Mark your calendars foodies! This is an event you don’t wanna miss. Catch a glimpse in my highlights and be prepared to 💃🏾!](http://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/c5810c66bb4b2486ab18f98cbb407257/5DBAE7C0/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/c0.180.1440.1440/s640x640/64892441_421890648540082_7870963729582139000_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com "Don’t mind if I werk this here purple carpet do you?

Me: My holiday weekend was amazing... perfect really!!! I got to spend my days cuddling with this sweet face! 😍🤗
So does any of my other Mommies out there experience a bit of “Mom guilt” when you have to leave your little ones? 🙋🏾♀️
In the beginning saying goodbye was a 5-10 minute ordeal for me... “Goodbye Kenzo, bye bye mommy baby, Mommy sweet baby boy, Momma love you so much, Mommy’s gonna miss you, Mommy Kenzie baby, I love you, Momma’s gonna go now baby, you gonna miss Momma, bye Mommy love bug, see you later, have a good day...[repeat 3x]!!!” 😩😩 We are approaching 9 months in this journey and goodbyes have gotten easier, but every now and then I have my moments where I never want to leave this little boy. It certainly doesn’t help that he is just so darn sweet!](http://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/f807c26c3080410e8bac5abdbe4ab182/5DB3FBBD/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/c0.180.1440.1440a/s640x640/61070205_167520464264850_6763795679206847338_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com "Nobody:
