Hello girls, what are you up to? Well, we are very excited because today we are going to announce a super cool dynamic that we have been preparing for some days now and that we know it will be very useful to you: we will talk about an activity that has become the summer meeting par excellence, the so-called ''BRUNCH'' that you have surely heard about before! It is the trend of the moment as far as lifestyle is concerned, if you have not yet had the chance to attend this type of social event or do not know what it is about, this week in our blog we will give you all the details and you will know how to prepare to be hostess. Special thanks to Mikasa for partnering w/ us for this exciting content, all the table sets shown in this post and on our social platforms can be found here.

The English word ''Brunch'' is a mixture between ''breakfast'' and ''lunch'' which as its name says translated into Spanish is the union between breakfast and lunch, this regularly takes place between 11:00 Am at 3:30 pm, soft dishes are served in it: canapés, sausages and fruit juices, sometimes hot chocolate or tea, a menu quite similar to a European breakfast, in fact, its origin comes from Europe, it is said that in London the servants of bourgeois families had a free day on Sunday, so one day before they prepared a great banquet that would satisfy their masters during their absence in serving the different meals of the day, this is why in brunch we find mixtures of dishes that are usually suggested for a lunch and others for breakfast, despite having their emphasis on Britain, the French also started promoting this activity in a more commercial and less elitist way, tending to meet in the middle of the morning to talk about social issues or simply as a weekend activity in a family oriented way. Other countries such as Spain have adopted it however, on this side of the world it first arrived to the USA where British immigrant families continued to carry on this activity on American soil and which over time, restaurants saw as a commercial opportunity beyond its ceremonial beginnings.

All in all, we hope you guys enjoy this content, as much as we loved making it for you. Hope the tips and background info is useful on hosting or attending your next Brunch. Don't forget to visit Mikasa to see all their beautiful dinnerware, flatware, drink ware and many other home essentials.

Hello chicas ¿En que andan? bueno, estamos super emocionado porque hoy les vamos a anunciar una dinámica super chula que tenemos algunos días preparando y que sabemos a ustedes les servirá de mucho: les hablaremos de una actividad que se ha convertido en el tipo de reunión por excelencia del verano, ¡el denominado ´´BRUNCH´´ que seguro lo han escuchado antes! es la tendencia del momento en cuanto a life style se refiere, si aún no has tenido la oportunidad de asistir a este tipo de evento social o no sabes en que consiste, esta semana en el blog tendrás todos los detalles y sabrás como prepararte para ser anfitriona

La palabra anglosajona ´´Brunch´´ es una mezcla entre ´´breakfast´´ y ´´lunch´´ que como su nombre lo dice traducido al español es la unión entre el desayuno y el almuerzo, este regularmente se realiza entre 11:00 am a 3:30 pm, en el mismo sirven platos suaves: canapés, embutidos y zumos de frutas, en ocasiones chocolate caliente o té, un menú bastante parecido al de un desayuno europeo, de hecho de aquí viene el origen de este, se cuenta que en Londres los sirvientes de las familias burguesas tenían como día libre el domingo, por lo que un día anterior preparaban un gran banquete que satisficiese a sus amos durante su ausencia en el servicio de las distintas comidas del día, por esto en el brunch encontramos mezclas de platos que se proponen normalmente para un almuerzo y otros para el desayuno, a pesar de tener su hincapié en aguas británicas, los franceses también se encargaron de promover este evento de manera más comercial y menos elitista, tendiendo a reunir a grupos a media mañana para hablar de temas sociales o simplemente como actividad de fin de semana a modo familiar, otros países como España lo han adoptado sin embargo de este lado del mundo llego por primera vez a America donde las familias inmigrantes británicas seguían realizándolo aun en suelo Americano y que con el tiempo restaurantes lo han visto como una oportunidad comercial más allá de lo ceremonial de sus inicios.
