Got my first ever brunch tomorrow...

[Chilli]

What shall I expect? 100 pissed up ex-pats being a PITA and abusing the staff, whilst arm-wrestling at the bar?
It's thoughts like these that have made me avoid them to date.

Depends where you go.

[Chilli]

Hmm, not sure ing with it. As I understand it's costing 150, which I gather is at the lower end of the scale?

[Hitch78]

At 150 your fears will probably be realised. Expect dancing with sunglasses on by 3pm, a bit of a tussle between two northern type blokes and a girl falling over and then giggling as she tries to get up. You'll probably be in Deckers or Waxys too!

Art'noon all!
Well, it's been and gone....and it was excellent!! It was at the Rotana tower, Longs bar I think. It was brilliant, great food, endless beers and the rest of the bar was full of nice, pretty quiet people. A very nice experience which we'll be doing again.

Brunch? What on earth is this concept?

Do you mean a 'piss up'?

You are British Sir, I hope you drank your gin and tonics with extra gin?

Out here in bumfk Russia we like to keep the alcohol levels up to a nice peachy level, it dulls the pain you know.

I'm actually almost sober right now, it feels odd to be honest.

Nice - I like Longs. Did not know they did a brunch though and it's always a bit smokey for me and my cravings for a Marlborough light after three years off them.

Funny you should say that, as I haven't had a smoke since Friday afternoon....Not sure how long I can keep it up....they're calling me.
