Felices pascuas!

SUNDAY 04/04/10

Pushing my head cold aside, I had to go out for brunch for Easter.  Flor and I met up at Begonia in Palermo Hollywood and her two Argentine friends joined.  I introduced them to mimosas – and the idea that it’s okay to drink champagne at 2:00 pm, even if you haven’t eaten breakfast yet.

























mmmm....mimosas

Four hours later (partially due to some great conversation, but primarily attributed to a complete lack of service – it took the server 30 minutes to tell us she was out of apples for the apple pancakes, which 3 out of the 4 of us had ordered), we did a little browsing in the fashion mecca of Palermo Soho.  The bars and restaurants turn into fashion warehouses where the designers set up their line of clothing on booths, pool tables, and bars.  The quantity and variety of clothing and accessories were quite overwhelming, but the quality was underwhelming.  We all agreed that the prices did not reflect the worth of the items.
