Get brunched up

As capitalism shambles into its gig economy phase, more of our lives have been consumed by work, but Saturday—sweet, sweet Saturday—should remain reserved for leisure. If you’re looking to pregame your pregame, look to Highwater (1910 Q Street) and its event Brunch AF on November 4 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. For $25, you get bottomless mimosas plus your choice of an entree. The day’s menu includes huevos rancheros, chilaquiles, eggs benedict, a “buttermilk biscuit bowl” filled with gravy and breakfast tacos made with onions, bell peppers, ghost-pepper salt from Preservation & Co. and either bacon, sausage or soyrizo. The affair caters to EDM-heads with a slate of seven DJs, including Highwater’s resident jockeys: LIES, Tokio Rocks and Ajotta. The vibe seems to be lively, but mellow enough not to aggravate Friday-induced hangovers.
