large baked ham being carved by a
Bay Boathouse kitchen staffer.

if you make it into the stretch *
without having to haul the brunch
bounty back to your table, you will
be able to take a breather by the
juice fountain and spend a few
moments ogling the dessert table
for later reference.

{ took quick note of strawberries
freshly dipped in chocolate and
peach halves dressed with single
buttons of cream while impatient
females dressed in pink jogging
suits jostled past me gnashing their
teeth.

Separate from the main brunch
circuit is the Boathouse’s brunch
saute table, at which a red-faced
cook whips up crepes for the im-
patient masses,

’ Crepe flavors offered on our
visit included blueberry, cherry
and pineapple.

The sautist also makes
omelettes, but the overwhelming
favorite while I stood in line was
the crepes.

Prefabricated, they were flash-
fried in a puddle of liquid butter in
small crepe pans over canned heat.

Boathouse brunch hits the spot

The result, though suitably rich,
was too butter-sodden for my
tastes,

Back at the table, our waitress
kept the coffee coming and coming.

She was cheery, efficient and
didn’t seem to mind stepping in the
ponds of yogurt and spilled milk
laid out in a semi-circle around our
table by my family.

All items sampled -—- and believe
me the family took full advantage
of the all-you-can-eat-aspects of
the brunch smorgasbord — were
good.

And better still the bill was
minimal: $21.50 for two adults and
50 cents per year per child.
