When I was growing up my parents took us out to eat all of the time. My mom hated to cook and my dad loved to dine out so it was a perfect combination. I’m sure it’s probably the reason I am a foodie today. Turns out, brunch was my favorite meal. I remember waking up on tnumerous Sunday mornings feeling excited knowing I was going to be able to eat all the eggs, bacon and fruit I wanted. It brought me so much joy and still gets me excited to have brunch even today. Here are 20 of the best places to brunch in Orange County.
