Three Favorite Places For Easter Brunch

It’s one of the most popular religious celebrations in the world. So popular, in fact, that weeks before Easter Sunday, some restaurants already have dozens of reservations on their books as residents prepare to spend time with family and friends.

Easter, the day many Christians celebrate in commemoration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, is April 24 this year and for many restaurants it will mean hosting hundreds for Easter brunch. 

• For Tassili’s Raw Realty, at 1059 Ralph David Abernathy, this will be a first. The raw food restaurant opened this year and plans to make the Easter brunch a tradition. Between 2:30 and 4:30 p.m., patrons will be treated to neo soul/ jazz music by Soulstar and featuring vocalist Zayani Rose. For Easter brunch, there will be a combo that includes raw pecan hancakes with maple or tropical syrup, fresh fruits, raw organic scrambled tofu and hot chocolate almond milk. The combo is a $15 value that the restaurant will be offering for $12 from 12 to 4 p.m.
