This past Sunday, a dear friend held a very adult 30th birthday at the Grand Concourse Sunday Brunch buffet. I have not been in this restaurant in...years. It has been forever. The lobby is lovely, and valet is reasonably priced if you don't want to walk to a parking lot. While the Sunday brunch crowd is not a particularly dressy bunch, I recommend wearing something nice. The Snookie look alike in hot pink sweat pants that said \"PINK\" across the bottom stuck out like a sore thumb...but that may have been in part, because she was cursing like a sailor while waiting for valet...c'mon folks. It's Sunday. \n\nBut I digress. \n\nWe made our way to the table and the whole room is just breathtaking. The staircase leading to the room was often frequented by people having photographs taken. There were several different buffets including your standard brunch items (which were all delicious) as well as some seafood options-shrimp and mussels-salad, some pasta, fresh carved meat, an omelet bar, an ice cream sundae bar, and fresh waffles with yummy bananas foster. Another delicious treat? The fresh doughnuts from the doughnut machine. They roll right off a little conveyor belt and you dip them in powdered or cinnamon sugar...I personally opted to put some of the goo from my bananas foster on my doughnut...SO heavenly. \n\nThe only gripe I have? It's a bit crowded. The layout does not lend itself to easy transportation. Because it is an old train station, there are charming obstacles that add to the charm, but take away from the ease and flow. Some of this frustration comes from parents who do not know how to control their annoying children who want to tap the lobster tank (you are in the middle of the road and causing traffic which is causing me anxiety), but it was only mildly annoying. This is unavoidable given the structure, but totally worth it because of the feel of the building and the quality of the food. \n\nOur service was fabulous-water was always filled, plates were cleared promptly so you could go up for seconds...thirds...there were a few who went for fourths at our table. Needless to say, this fills you up for the whole day. I went home and had a traditional \"Sunday afternoon-after-lunch-after-chuch-nap.\" It was glorious, and I credit that to my delicious brunch.
