Cold cocktails with friends on the patios around the city and brunch to recover from those same cocktails the next morning. Brunch is probably one of my favourite meals and truly is, in my mind, heaven on earth. So let me tell you about a the latest brunch concept launched this past weekend by Oliver & Bonacini Café Grill, Yonge and Front that is not only delicious but is also making a difference.
