Our favorite hotel in the area hosted their annual “Dickens” Brunch today!

Howllo fellow basset hound and Sunday Brunch Lovers…Grandma and I had so much fun today.  We went to brunch at our favorite and the most beautiful hotel in Cincinnati, (Hilton Netherland Plaza).  We have gone to brunches here before and I have blogged about it before but this was the Holiday Charles Dickens Brunch!  There was Yorkshire pudding, scotch eggs, figgy pudding, steak and onion pie, and of course much more!  It was soooooooooo good!

Here are the carolers……It was really very magical.

We had never been to the Dickens Brunch.  We will return next year!

Someone was mad as the Dickens at me when I got home!

Poor boy wanted some figgy pudding!

Well, himz and Shimlette got a nice British shortbread cookie I snuck out for them.

All was forgiven!

More Dickens Dreams later….Cat, Chaps and Emma

    Sounds wonderful, I would love to go to something like that. We have carolers, bell ringers, and violinists that perform at various building in the Chicago Downtown area throughout the holiday season, but this sounds and looks beautiful. I hope it wasn’t too expensive.

    No, it was not too bad for a real treat. I think it was about 25 per person. I ate about 125 dollars worth. I am still full!

    KM – I adore shortbread. Ohhhhhhhh, that cranberry orange sounds delicious. I think I used to be addicted to shortbread in college. I remember back when Delta used to give out the authentic shortbread cookies on their flights. I always asked for an extra one as a treat for the next layover…..hehehe

    OMD Cat! those Delta cookies were the best!!! I fly with Continental every week and they don’t give us anything.
    Happy Holidays to everyone!
    And kisses to the kids and Grandma
