Brunch Fulton Market

Get ready for some fierce female culinary action.  James Beard award-winning chef Sarah Grueneberg of Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio, sommelier Belinda Chang, Anna Posey of Michelin-starred Elske and more — are shaking up Sunday brunch at The Publican, One Off Hospitality's modern-day American beer hall, during its brand new Sunday B.L.T. (Brunch. Ladies. Tunes.) series.

On the final Sunday of each month from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m., members of the roster will contribute her own specialty B.L.T. - inspired recipes and other culinary creations to Publican Chef de Cuisine Sieger Bayer’s menu of brunch delights for the day. Guests will be offered an array of dishes and drinks set to curated soundtracks from the leading ladies, featuring their favorite jams from female artists like Gwen Stefani, Cardi B, Cher and more.

From takes on the B.L.T. to cocktails inspired by the classic, the series will highlight the creativity and skills of a different chef, sommelier or bartender as their creations join the Fulton Market eatery's brunch menu. Each installment of "Sunday B.L.T" will include a playlist featuring the visiting women's favorite girl-powered anthems including everything from retro rocker chicks and divas to the girl groups of today. The best part? $1 of each B.L.T - inspired dish or cocktail purchased will be donated to the guest hospitality pro's charity of choice.
