The Food

The only way to kick off Birmingham Restaurant Week’s Harvest Brunch was with lots of food to devour. And trust me, there was plenty!During the event, vendors served up incredible samples that amplified the scrumptious flavors of the Alabama farmers’ produce.

The Fun

Held at Social Venture in Woodlawn and set to the beat of live jazz music, the Harvest Brunch kick-off was an excellent mix of food, drinks and good times.
