The weekend is finally here, and that means making brunch plans with the squad.
Sure, it’s nice to go out for a lavish brunch at a lovely eatery like Rusty Pelican, but every now and then, it’s a great idea to make brunch at home.
This weekend, surprise your loved ones with a homemade pork belly waffle sandwich with maple mustard sauce. Rusty Pelican’s eastern regional chef, Jim Pastor, will show you how.
Today, March 16, at 3 p.m., Pastor will show New Times food editor Laine Doss how to make this satisfying brunch item live on Miami New Times‘ Facebook page.
