A brief history of brunch
· Brunch is a portmanteau of "breakfast" and "lunch(eon)"
· It is thought the meal has its roots in British 19th Century hunt breakfasts - lavish multi-course meals
· In 1895, Guy Beringer wrote a column for Hunter's Weekly arguing the case for inventing a whole new meal for late Sunday mornings, mainly for Saturday night partygoers
· The following year he was mentioned in an issue of Punch, which announced "to be fashionable nowadays we must 'brunch'"
· While the concept is British, it's the Americans who really embraced it
· It reportedly became popular in 1930s Chicago when film stars and the like stopped off in the city between trains for a late morning meal
· Sunday brunch became even more popular in the US after World War II, when there was a decline in American churchgoers
· This trend continued as the more formal 1950s gave way to the '60s
· Back then brunch menus included clam cocktails and calf's liver with hash browns, nowadays it's more likely to be Eggs Benedict
