ATT011 – Kitty Cleveland & Jazz Brunches

The Jazz Brunch: The Perfect Combination of New Orleans Food & Jazz New Orleans is known for its food. From gumbo to jambalaya to fresh seafood from the Gulf of Mexico expertly prepared in a myriad of ways, the food in New Orleans is world-famous.  New Orleans is also known as the birthplace of jazz. And these two elements – food and jazz – come together perfectly in what is traditionally called a Jazz Brunch. “Brunch,” a combination of the words “breakfast” and “lunch,” is a leisurely meal that is historically enjoyed on Sundays. But here in New Orleans, you can enjoy brunch just about any day of the week. Brunch is not rushed. It is enjoyed leisurely. Starting off with a cocktail (or an aperitif) like a Bloody Mary, Mimosa or Mint Julep, brunch typically begins after after church on Sunday mornings and lasts for a few hours. Brunch provides an opportunity for family and friends to come together to celebrate family life and the culmination of another week… and to relax and prepare for the new week ahead.
