Brunch 'n Munch

It wasn't until Ms. Day was much older that she realized her mom made up the "fact" that people were supposed to squint on Easter. This apparently had just been a ploy to get little Miss Day to stop complaining about the sun being in her eyes and start smiling for the pictures. Nowadays, Day knows a few more (true) things about this holiday. She's learned that chocolate bunnies don't improve with age — you have to eat them in their entirety in one sitting within 48 hours of Easter morning — and she knows that families and friends are supposed to get together for a nice meal. To help with this last requirement, Vin de Set (2017 Chouteau Avenue; 314-241-8989 or www.1111-m.com) serves an Easter Brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today. Partaking in the feast costs $34 per person, and that gets you your basic breakfasty-lunchy stuff, with the added bonus of ham, prime rib and tenderloin carved to order, an omelet station (you can also order crêpes here), mucho seafood, and a separate dessert buffet! You won't need to trick anyone to smile after seeing all that!
