Why Bottomless Mimosas are Illegal in Texas

May 5, 2017

I occasionally do reporting for The Dallas Morning News‘ entertainment website, GuideLive.

One of the time-honored gay traditions here in Dallas (and across the U.S.) is brunch, so I decided to a post about the best bottomless mimosa spots in Dallas.

However, in doing my research for the article, I discovered that bottomless mimosas are illegal in Texas.

Not only that, but another publication — The San Antonio Current — did a similar bottomless mimosa article which the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission used as an enforcement hit-list.

Some people go to church – others get mimosas.

Bottomless mimosa brunch is a time-honored gay tradition.

You pull yourself out of bed, slap on some sunglasses, and sashay to the local bar-restaurant for day drinking.

Over the years, I’ve learned that there are 5 cardinal rules for surviving a mimosa brunch.

Brunch at British Beverage Company in Dallas, Texas. They have a mimosa bar that allows you to choose your own garnishes and juices.

Beyonce Brunch #BeyAndEggs

May 22, 2015

Our group finally made it to Beyonce Brunch.

Krystal gathered a bunch of us for Beyonce Brunch because her mother was in town from California. It was my first time at Mattie’s on Main, which replaced Kikugawa in the Riverplace building.

The venue was gorgeous, but lacks the sprawling patio space that Lush Food Bar and Loring Kitchen have. I think this would be a great brunch place in the winter however.
