Backyard Discovery: Harbor House Brunch

Last weekend, a big group of us had brunch at the Harbor House right on the lakefront in Milwaukee. It was a test run brunch; they start serving Sunday brunch regularly tomorrow. I thought it was great; every brunch item you could want including oysters, soups, omelettes, salads, belgian waffles, and mimosas. The best part about brunch here is obviously the view--overlooking the Art Museum and downtown skyline and harbor. But I also like the clean lines and yacht club feel of the restaurant. Yes, it's a little more casual than Lake Park Bistro, but not much. With all the food there, even a raw bar and elaborate dessert table, my favorite items were these little raisin toasts with goat cheese and red grapes. I had a few. So, brunch is a little pricey, $40, but it does include a lot. Here's a full list of the brunch menu. Brunch options in Milwaukee is bordering on epic, so if you're in town on the weekend or live here full-time, you have some tough decisions to make. I would definitely add this one to the list.
