Don't Back Down

Good Old Sunday Brunch »

Yesterday after church, we found ourselves looking for a place to eat. And for whatever reason, I was in the mood for Sunday brunch. Now I don't mean a Shoney's brunch. I mean a real brunch, with cook-to-order omelettes, sliced roast beef, the whole shebang - not just a series of warming trays.

After driving around for about an hour and trying to find something, when we didn't even know if it existed in Charlotte, Denise stumbled on an ad in Creative Loafing for the Waldhorn Restaurant.

As you might be able to divine from the name, this is a German restaurant. Even better, they have Sunday brunch. With breakfast foods (the omelettes, cheese grits and home fries were excellent) and German specialities. My personal favorites were the Spaetzle (noodles like Grandma used to make) and the beef and pork goulash. Especially with the latter over the top of the former. And the heath-bar cookies were awesome, with just the right consistency.

I highly recommend the place for Sunday brunch. I'm sure the food is good at other times, but you probably won't get quite the sampling as you do at brunch.
