Brunch in Brooklyn

Great rustic serving table

Strong and graphic tile lines with black grout.

This is a great waterfront loft in Brooklyn, New York where the class-cooking-dining experiences of Sunday Suppers happens. The spaces are light and simple with touches of strong rustic furniture and you couldn't miss the gorgeous classic kitchen. On this particular occasion,  a group of designers, writers, editors, photographers and other talented ladies gathered together to celebrate Mothers Day. The stylish surroundings is lovely and this is a great way to be with people and enjoy really good food.

Sorry for the lack of action on the blog this week - my email was hacked and the crummy hackers spammed my entire address book! So I had to clean up the mess and sort out my new email address. If you were affected by the spam, please know that I am not in Spain needing money! Thanks.
