Abandon the overused American brunch solution of "Put an Egg on It!", and expand your brunch horizons! Join us for an evening of cooking North Indian breakfast and brunch classics, which all happen to be vegetarian. Many of these are Roop's family favorites for a big, satisfying and delicious Sunday brunch. We will also make some of Simran's favorite breakfast treats inspired by holiday visits to India to stay with her maternal grandparents. She fondly remembers being woken up late by her grandfather, holding a warm cup of spiced chai, and immediately serving her what is probably one her favorite breakfasts in the world.
 
To be honest, these dishes can be made for any meal of the day, but we hope it inspires you to cook it for others for brunch one weekend!
