Brunch is arguably the greatest meal of the day. It’s all the best of breakfast foods with none of the judgment for drinking in the morning. But not all brunch is created equal– for a feast fit for the gods there’s only one choice: Faith & Flower. You will eat, drink, and revel in a restaurant so beautiful Mount Olympus could take design tips from it.

Let’s start with the booze. Faith & Flower has a phenomenal wine list thanks to award-winning sommelier Jared Hooper. They also offer a rotating cocktail menu developed by Bombet Hospitality Group’s Ryan Wainwright and lead bartender Adam Fournier. In time for spring they’ve created some heavenly sips, like the Siren’s Song: Edinburgh Seaside Gin, Nori-infused dry vermouth, pink Himalayan saline, and house-pickled sea beans. Or try the Liliko’I Niu, which has coconut-washed vodka, passion fruit, lemon, coconut water cordial, Angostura bitters, and roasted coconut. These inventive cocktails aren’t just hair of the dog– they are the delicious, eye-opening hair of Cerberus.

To be fair, Faith & Flower also serves killer lunch and dinner, but a great brunch is surprisingly hard to come by these days. Located in downtown Los Angeles, Faith & Flower soaks up all the rich culinary traditions the diverse city offers. It’s American staples made with California’s abundant fresh produce, elevated by vibrant flavors from around the world. Take the Deviled Jidori Eggs: served with Korean Chili, Kimchee, and Black sesame– don’t feel badly for not sharing. The Downtown LA Breakfast is three eggs your way with spicy chorizo hash, Cotija cheese, and a tostada. Or have some booze with your booze and get their unreal Malted Waffle, which is served with a mixed berry and Riesling compote and vanilla syrup. The Eggs Benedict Pizza will ruin all other Eggs Benedicts for you– no more will a simple English Muffin be enough! The Kimchee Cornbread will have you taking the Lord’s name in vain repeatedly it’s so damn good. It’s warm and perfect and served with a Mozzarella fondue.

They also offer a fantastic event once a month called the Winemaker Series. They team up with vintners to serve new wines or hard to find bottles with a special menu created to compliment the wine. It’s an intimate event in the private dining room hosted by Jared Hooper. It’s an unparalleled chance to learn more about wine, drink great bottles, and eat savory food.

10 smoky scotch whisky options to make those fall campfires magical
Our favorite smoky scotch whisky brands for late-summer drinking
Campfire whisky

The end of summer is barreling toward us like a pumpkin spice-fueled locomotive. Depending on where you live, you’re likely already seeing some signs of fall. The leaves are beginning to change color, the days are getting shorter, and Halloween candy is already on grocery store shelves. Fear not, even with the eventuality that is the end of summer, we still have until September 23 to enjoy all that the season has to offer. For us, it means as many backyard campfires as possible before the weather grows colder. It also means we only have weeks left to pair our fires with a glass of warming Scotch whisky.

Nobody will blame you for complimenting the smoky fire by drinking a complex, non-peated single malt Scotch whisky. For those confused about the spelling, most of the world omits the 'e' when referring to whisky. You also might be wondering the difference between Scotch and whiskey. Well, in the simplest terms, Scotch is a kind of whisky (Americans and the Irish still use the 'e'). So that should put an end to the Scotch vs. whiskey debate once and for all.

Take a break from pumpkin beer: The best Oktoberfest beers to drink this fall
These delicious drinks are perfect for crisp fall days
Pint of beer

There are at least a handful of holidays (especially drinking centered holidays) that many drinkers don’t really know the true origins of. We know these are special days in which we drink tequila and Mexican beer (Cinco de Mayo), Irish whiskey or dry Irish stouts (St. Patrick’s Day), and giant pints of malty, refreshing German beer (Oktoberfest). And while we’ll get into the other two when the time comes, it’s Oktoberfest’s time in the spotlight.

Oktoberfest is more than simply a day to wear your grandfather’s lederhosen, drink Marzen, eat schnitzel, and listen to oom-pah music. It’s a two-week festival (the actual party is in Munich) that’s celebrated each fall to remember the wedding of Prince Ludwig of Bavaria and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen on October 12, 1810.
