"Drag brunch is back at the Country Club, Bywater’s always-packed oasis for brunch or otherwise. Eat and drink outside in the lush pool gardens or on the front veranda; there are plenty of boozy options. Bellinis and mimosas come six glasses to a carafe, and there’s a potent Tito’s bloody mary. Or how about a bucket of Jell-O shots? Housed in a stunning circa-1884 Italianate manse in Bywater, brunch specialties include dishes like a silky corn and blue crab bisque and short ribs and eggs. Lots of gluten-free options are available, too." - Beth D’Addono
