Ever wake up hungry (or hung-over) on a Saturday morning (or afternoon) and just wish you had everything to eat for breakfast? Who am I kidding – this happens every day to me, but more so on Saturdays. This is why Thirteen’s brunch buffet is my new best friend.

Every Saturday until noon, you can enjoy an all-you-can-stomach $19 breakfast feast at the Marriott’s restaurant on 12th & Market. Once you find the place, you walk into a very large dining area and will be helped by 13’s very nice staff. If you’re lucky, they seat you closest to the omelet station. There, a chef will take your order for whatever kind of omelet or Belgian waffle you’d like. We almost left without trying the waffles, but our waitress insisted that we at least split one, and boy am I glad I found room in my tummy for that! It was melt-in-your-mouth Belgian deliciousness.

While waiting for your omelet or waffle (or both!), fill your plate with the various sides like breakfast potatoes (I couldn’t stop raving about these), bacon, turkey sausage or biscuits, or grab a bowl of oatmeal. After your plate is full and subsequently empty, head on up to one of the other stations: cereal, pastry/toast station, or the cold bar. The cinnamon buns are just the right size so you can also try one of the chocolate chip crumb muffins, one of my faves of the morning.

My friend Sean and I almost totally missed the cold bar, and what a shame that would have been because the salmon was awesome. I made my own concoction of toast, cream cheese, salmon, onions and capers – mmm! Also choose from a nice fruit selection, cured meats and other various veggies and spreads at the cold bar.

With a TV at every booth, you won’t miss the news or college football while feasting away on all your favorite foods! Do not miss out on this brunch! Offered daily!
