15 types of brunch dining rooms
1. THE COUPLE
Sometime around the turn of the century this lunch became a seal of love and commitment one step below leaving a toothbrush at the partner's house. Every weekend thousands of couples seal your newly opened love (the brightness and dark circles of a passionate night accompany them) or renew their commitment (the brightness and roundness of many nights on the sofa and blanket accompany them) with sips of Bellinis that make their eyes more and more glassy. They are also the smallest group of diners that can be found, because -and this is an irrefutable scientific truth- no one eats brunch alone.
two. THE ENTHUSIASTIC GURIS
they are insultingly young , they have a lot of free time and an innate talent for locating the coolest brunch spot in town. They come at least once a week to laugh constantly, take millions of photos (which usually makes them the following typology) and act as extras for a Taylor Swift video clip, smiling to life and casually made up but always cute. They also usually wear a hat even indoors, they are never a group less than five and they are mostly made up of exchange students with a lot of budget.

Four. THE PIJOLAS
They go to hotel brunches very select in which oysters, sushi and champagne compete with carbohydrates. The border between the buffet breakfast deluji, the cocktail comme il faut and the brunch is diluted watered by the background music – sometimes there is a pianist entertaining the evening- between 50 and 80 euros per experience.

5. THOSE WHO ARE GOING FOR REENACTMENT
No dawn will stop your desire to party; in the absence of boozy brunch in their environment, they will go to the most abundant and relaxed they know even if the festive spirit is only put by them, emanating smell of alcohol that reaches your table . Those eggs rancheros and that hamburger will be the first solid you eat in the last fourteen hours, but they will take such good advantage of the open bar of drinks that the bloody mary and the champagne cocktail will guarantee its purpose: to keep the hangover away for a few more hours.
6. THE SKEPTICS
are those who say "This is what all life has been called a lunch", “This french toast thing is nothing more than a poorly made French toast” They look suspiciously at the can of maple syrup and say that for that price they could make themselves fried eggs with a slice of ham. If you want to stop his complaints, ask him when was the last time he had such an abundant and delicious breakfast at home.
7. THE HANGOVERS
Obviously they are not in the right state to prepare a Nescafe cappuccino, let alone make something solid. They go to a fixed shot, have little patience for the queue and gobble down their copious breakfast without conversation. Only when the drink and the energies of the butter begin to take effect do they manage to recover a little and become operational. Brunch was invented for this typology , so let's honor her by fitting into her many times.
For those who re-engage or hangovers...
8. THOSE WHO COME EXCLUSIVELY FOR ALCOHOL
The offer of salads, main dishes and sweets is brought to you. Limitless Mimosas and Bloody Marys who needs more? This typology is divided between those who prefer those who prefer the former and those who opt for the latter; two ways of understanding the world.

9. THE "SO IN NEW YORK..."
We already know that you lived there, **enough of constantly remembering your Sundays at Juliette or Sylvia's **, enough of rubbing the variety, quality and popular fondness for new yorker brunch . We all struggle to deal with the fact that we're not in that city every day, so don't dwell on it.
10. BEGINNERS
They take hours to decide on the letter . They open their eyes wide when they are aware of everything they are going to eat and a smile of pure and genuine joy is drawn to his face when the plate of bacon and eggs appears. It does not matter the objections with which they have entered, they will leave converted to the Brunch faith and orthodox Benedictism.

eleven. THE BOTTOMLESS WELLS
They want all-you-can-eat buffet and curse if there is a limit of pieces of pastries or glasses of alcohol with fruit juice that can be taken. They tend to curb their cravings when brunch isn't self-service and you have to ask the waiter for the 10th cocktail in a row or another muffin. But they should not be cut, the waiters are scared to death.
12. THE MILITANTS
They have recently discovered brunch and They think it's the best thing that ever happened to them. , so much so that it is impossible to meet them to eat at a restaurant on a Saturday; they are always having brunch. They consider it to be the coolest thing in the universe, they take a lot of photos of the banners on the ceiling and the cocktails in recycled boats, they use a Mr. Wonderful notebook, make jokes about the detox they'll have to go through for eating a waffle and essentially They're Girls' Shoshanna and people who understand what it's like to be Girls' Shoshanna.

13. THE REAL ESTATE
There are Mexican, vegetarian, gluten-free brunches, with international specialties... But for them brunch only means one thing, the classic, and protest if instead of eggs they are offered couscous or pizza. open mind ; Let's think about the lessons for life that Paulo Coelho could draw from not being picky. The teacher, the disciple, the fry. It's all the same.
14. THE CONTENT
Why, why in all the hells of the underworld, do people go to brunch just for coffee and a scone? Aren't they aware that that chair could be occupied by someone who is going to get warm from sausages and french toast?
fifteen. THE PACKED
They leave the session bloated and half-drunk, fit only for a three-hour nap, promising each other that this is the last time in a long time that they will be so full, that from now on they will only have a yogurt and muesli for breakfast and that they won't do it again until at least next year. See you next Sunday.
