Dining Review Travel

Crimson Sunday Brunch

Summer time is all about slowing down for us.

During the school year, I’m sure to keep everyone on a tight schedule so that homework gets done, sports events are attended, and dinner gets on the table. That also means that we can make time Sunday lunch or dinner with the extended family, but 9 times out of 10 we are hurrying out to go home, prepare book bags, and do the last minute homework for the Monday that follows.

But summer? Summer is made for slower meals and a more relaxed pace. Summer is made for SUNDAY Brunches, where you can sit and take your time. Sundays in the summer are made for mimosas and bloody mary’s to be sipped while watching the kids play.

Crimson Sunday Brunch is super convenient for us because it’s right down the road. It’s easy to get to and has a ton of things to do for the kids. We decided to check out the brunch buffet last week as a family and we were all pleasantly surprised at just how easy it is for all of us to enjoy our meal.

Just the two of us....I mean six of us....

Just the two of us….I mean six of us….

Sometimes, yaya has the weekend off so that she can spend time with her own family. When Gelli was smaller (and not a toddler tornado) I wouldn’t even mind the days off that yaya had. But Gelli is older now, moves around a lot, gets bored easily, and is a little picky with her food. So…when it is just the six of us going out to eat, I make sure that we eat in a place that is kid friendly, and safe for Gelli to explore with her siblings if she chooses to walk around after she is done eating.

First thing you do is measure your kids when you register.

Kids under 4 feet are free and kids under 4 1/2 feet are fifty percent off. 

When you sign your kids in, they get a bracelet. Keep this bracelet on for the whole day. It will be very important later on.

Kiddos can feel right at home playing amongst the balloons...

What kid doesn’t like a floor full of balloons??

Kids can watch the movie playing for the day.

So while the kids are playing, or watching a movie, or drawing and coloring, you can eat. You can enjoy delicious freshly baked ham.

Nino says that a Brunch Buffet is NOT a Brunch Buffet unless there is lots of cold seafood. I’m happy to say that this buffet passed his test 🙂 SEE all the SEAFOOD???

In between my different plates of food (and cheese) I would check on Gelli.

Because everything was set up for the kids, it made it easy for me to sit and relax and enjoy my food. If you are a momma, you KNOW what that means, because it is far and few in between when you get to SIT, RELAX, and ENJOY your food….

So I made time for dessert. 

The buffet has an abundance of different desserts that you can enjoy while the kiddos are entertaining themselves. One of my favorites was the chocolate lava cake. (OMG.) It was so good that I forgot to take a photo of it. It is baked on the spot and covered in a vanilla cream sauce, served warm of course.

What did I like most about the Sunday Brunch Buffet?

  • It is convenient, close to home, and clean.
  • There are choices for me AND choices for my kids.
  • There is an abundance of seafood. (SEE food? Eat it!)
  • There are fun treats for kids and kids at heart.
  • There are coloring pages, with WASHABLE markers.
  • There is a movie playing for the kids to enjoy.
  • There is a choice…we could have brunch with or without alcohol.

BUT WAIT. THERE IS MORE.

This is the one thing that will differentiate #CrimsonSundayBrunchBuffet from every other Brunch Buffet you are aware of.

Kids can bring their swimsuits.

When you enjoy the brunch buffet with the kids, you are automatically entitled to an afternoon swim in the Crimson pool. You just need to let your kids keep that bracelet that they were given earlier in the day on. Bring your swimsuits and cool off from the summer heat, here…  

Kids can swim after enjoying the movie, activities, and brunch buffet for FREE.

    I love this post because it reminds me when all our kids were small and we all went out together!

      Aw. Dad-we had a wonderful childhood. I think back to those times when we were kids and we were all together, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
