For all of you avid brunch-goers, Garces Trading Company does a weekend brunch (from 11am to 2:30pm) as of now. One option is to go for the $25 prix fixe menu, which includes 3 courses and a refreshing, booze-free beverage. Potential combinations include Fresh Summer Melon with mint labneh and spiced pecans, Blueberry Muffin French Toast with Lancaster county maple syrup and goat butter, a Lemon Meringue Tart and some Rosemary Lemonade.

And if the name Garces and the words prix fixe get you all aflutter, then keep on fluttering. Chef Jose Garces himself will continue to host those Craft Beer Dinners at Chifa. On Thursday, July 22, the beer-crafter in focus will be Brian O’Reilly (head brewer at Sly Fox.)  Among the most intriguing of the pairings is the desert: Malted Pound Cake with strawberries and Incubus syrup paired with Incubus- Sly Fox’s golden triple. Dinner starts at 7pm, you need reservations for sure, and it costs $65 a head. Sounds crafty. If you miss this one, there’s always the one on Thursday, August 5 with Garrett Oliver (head brewer of Brooklyn Brewing Company) and the one on Thursday, September 30 with Tom Kehoe (founder of Yards Brewing Co.).
