Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Looking for something entirely different for Sunday brunch? Epernay Lounge just introduced Royal Brunch, featuring entertainment in the form of drag hostesses. Mixing a European tea dance with a classic gay T-dance, the Sunday brunch includes rounds of Drag Queen Bingo (not your grandmother's version) and other parlor games, as well as choreographed performances from the queens themselves to keep the energy high and the bottomless mimosas flowing. The eats are Epernay's take on familiar brunch fare, including vanilla French toast, a Kobe beef omelette, eggs Benedict with prosciutto, smoked salmon with herbed cream cheese on toast points, and even a fruit parfait. Shake up your Sunday routine and get a little down and a little dirty with the Royal Brunch at an afternoon you won't forget.
The Royal Brunch runs every Sunday from 2 to 6 p.m. You can make reservations at 303- 573-5000 or at epernaylounge.com; walk-ins are also welcome. Keep reading for a look at some of the dishes — and the divas — and read the expanded story on our Arts blog.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
