In New York City, the gospel brunch at Sylvia’s in Harlem is legendary. People of all creeds and races come out for a weekly dose of soul food and singing, and even a cretin such as Bill O’Reilly can’t help but admit there’s a sprinkling of magic and brotherly love in the air. Having experienced the rare joy that a heaping helping of collard greens can bring when served with a song, we’ve been wondering: Where are the gospel brunches here in Miami? Now we have an answer! At Joley Restaurant in Hotel Astor, the Inspirational Brunch series offers spirituality and spirits every Sunday in April.
Acclaimed songstress Maryel Epps will croon to your heart’s content while you tuck into a $44 prix fixe brunch, complete with shared appetizers, a spread of main courses including a jumbo lump crab omelet and buttermilk pancakes, and a complimentary mimosa. Get yourself some religion (and a side dish of cheddar cheese grits) today from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call 305-534-3343 for reservations.
Sundays, 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Starts: April 13. Continues through April 27, 2008
