Bacar is experimenting with brunch and is offering their first example Easter Sunday. I'd leave a link to the PDF, except that it uses Flash, and the link is not obvious. Here is the menu for this Sunday....

As I previously reported, Manresa will be celebrating the Iron Chef America victory by offering the winning dishes with a six-course Iron Chef menu for $135 per person. The menu will be available on three consecutive Sundays, May 10, 17, and 24. This is a special menu, so if you want it, please request it when you make your reservation.

More information is available here on the Manresa blog.
