Suckling Pig Happy Hour
Conventional restaurant wisdom says you roll out one ridiculously good deal at a time. To which Marc Forgione respectfully raises a middle finger, simultaneously introducing you to its Tuesday three-hour Suckling Pig Sliders happy hour with two-for-one beers and bottomless mimosas at its Sunday brunch. How you spend your time between Tuesday and Sunday is up to you.

Wilfie & Nell Launches Brunch
Brunches come and go, but Wilfie & Nell is extending its pub-grade deliciousness to the weekend in a fit of reckless generosity that includes dishes like the Bacon and Goat Cheese Sandwich and cocktails like the Spicy Bloody Mary With McClure’s Pickle Juice. Finally, a reason to drag yourself out of bed at the crack of noon.

Minetta Launches Brunch
Only one true NFL Sunday afternoon remains, and Minetta Tavern is making a move on that precious real estate by introducing brunch. In addition to staples like the Black Label Burger, they’re unveiling gems like Shirred Egg With Black Truffles, Ham and Eggs With Grits and five kinds of Bloody Marys. Thus, the brunch versus football debate rages on.

Unlimited Boozy Brunch for $20 at Kittichai
Because your Saturday brunching could use more Thai food, the masterminds behind SoHo joint Kittichai recently had the idea of a prix fixe brunch with unlimited cocktails for only $20. To commemorate the occasion, they’re serving up classic dishes like lime leaf pancake soufflé and implementing an approach to mimosa distribution that economists have called “refreshing.”
411:
Kittichai, weekends from 11am-2:45pm, 60 Thompson St (between Spring and Broome), 212-219-2000
UD - A New East Village Boozy Brunch
Morning After
A New East Village Boozy Brunch
Cheers to Mercadito Cantina for jumping on the all-you-can-drink brunch bandwagon. That means plenty of ways to wash down more savory offerings like Pozole Verde and Manchego cheese-topped pancakes. There’s a two-hour time limit, so keep an eye on the clock.
411:
$21/two hours, Sat and Sun, noon-4pm, Mercadito Cantina, 172 Avenue B, 212-388-1750
UD - Hotel Griffou Brunch
BRUNCHING
Hotel Griffou Brunch
When you’re strategically hidden below 9th Street, protected from the impending cold weather, bunkering down for brunch seems like a solid plan of attack for late November. So allow us to mention the sticky buns, shrimp ‘n’ grits with merguez sausage, and lobster fondue. The four different Bloody Marys can speak for themselves.
411:
Sundays, 11am-4pm, Hotel Griffou, 21 W. 9th St, 212-358-0228, see the menu

Tequila Brunching at Mayahuel
The East Village tequila temple launches brunch service this Sunday, and you can expect south of the border specialties like El Ranchero (an unholy pairing of hanger steak, pork belly and plantains) along with a laundry list of ‘quila-based cocktails and punches. Because if there is one thing missing from the modern brunch, it is the flavor of pure agave…

411: Starts Sunday, 11am-4pm, Mayahuel, 304 E. 6th St, 212-253-5888

Bia’s All-You-Can-Drink Beer Brunch
All right, it’s not quite all you can drink. But when you order brunch fusion like Daikon Corned Beef Hash or Pandan Pancakes With Lemongrass Sausage, the Vietnamese beer garden will give you two free hours to knock back as much Asian beer as possible. Yes, friends, the Asian beer gauntlet has officially been laid.

Starts Saturday, Bia Garden, 154 Orchard St, 212-780-0010
