Sunday Boozy Brunch Option #1: Unlimited mimosas with house-cured wild
salmon (on the plates) and animal heads (on the walls) at Saddle Peak Lodge.
Sunday Boozy Brunch Option #2: Beer cocktails and vodka-spiked Stumptown
with banana pudding french toast at Barrel Down. No animal heads here, if that makes a difference.
Two bartenders from Chicago’s Lost Lake are coming to town on Monday. They’ll be up on the roof at E.P. & L.P., making some of their signature tiki cocktails for the night. It’s the start of a whole guest bartender series. Collect ’em all.
