Sunday Brunch Favorites: Must-Try Dishes And Drinks

Why is Sunday Brunch Special?     

Sunday is more than the end of the week -it’s a day to pause, recharge, and connect with loved ones. And what can be a better way to convince them than Sunday brunch? The best combination of breakfast and lunch is not only about food - it is about making memories, slowing down, and tasting every bite.

Whether you are planning a comfortable meal at home or going to your favorite cafe, the Sunday Brunch has become a timeless tradition of love worldwide.

Honestly, brunch is the best excuse to eat pancakes and sushi in the same meal without anyone judging you. And if you’ve been to Yamashiro in Los Angeles, you already know their Sunday brunch hits are different. The view, the food, the vibe—it’s like LA wrapped into one plate.

The Sweet Stuff

I’ll start with my weakness: pancakes. The Lemon Ricotta Pancakes here are soft, fluffy, a little tangy, and they don’t even need syrup but yeah, I still drown them in it. Then there’s the Bread Board. It sounds basic, but when you’re tearing into warm croissants and pain au chocolat while sipping coffee and staring at the Hollywood Hills, it feels like you’re cheating life.

The Savory Bites

Now, if you’re the type who skips sweet stuff (no judgment, but why tho?), the Egg Salad Avocado Toast is a big win. It’s loaded, fresh, and doesn’t leave you feeling heavy. The C.R.O.B. (Crispy Rice Oscar Benedict with blue crab and asparagus) is like the LA version of brunch royalty. Fancy but still cozy. And I gotta give props to the Yamashiro Breakfast Sando—it’s got beef egg foo young, lettuce, special sauce, and cheese in a challah bun. Trust me, it’s messy, but it’s worth it.

Sushi for Brunch? Yup.

Here’s where Yamashiro sets itself apart. Forget your plain omelet—here you can grab a Yamashiro Roll or a Spicy Tuna Roll at brunch. It’s like LA’s little secret: sushi is totally a brunch food if you’re eating it with a mimosa in hand.

Drinks Matter Too

Without drinks, no brunch conversation is complete. Yes, you can have tea or coffee, but let's face it, the actual highlights of Sunday brunch are Bloody Marys and mimosas. Pair that with the koi pond view, and you get a meal that feels more like a memory.

Quick Side Note on Catering

Now, if you’re planning an event and thinking about catering, don’t just go straight for the usual Italian spots. Pasta’s great, sure, but brunch-style dishes like sushi rolls, crab benedict, and avocado toast? That’s the kind of menu people talk about after the party’s over.

Why Yamashiro Brunch Hits Different

What makes Yamashiro special isn’t just the food (even though it’s killer). It’s the whole scene: eating avocado toast while koi swim nearby, watching the city spread out below you, catching that LA sunshine. It feels like a mini vacation without leaving town.
