JD BRUNCH SERIES – OCTOBER
Steak + Scrambled Eggs with Crispy Potatoes
Typically when I pick a brunch spot, it's based on the look of the venue. I go for cute, unique and picturesque restaurants and hope the food is good. So it was no surprise to my guests when Jack Rose was next on the list. After seeing the restaurant posted several times on social media, I was dying to go. There were so many photo worthy moments but we decided to capture a photo in front of the signature Lil Wayne painting.Now if you're attending Jack Rose be prepared to spend a little more than you typically would at other restaurants. This is a fine dining establishment and the menu is definitely that. I ordered the Steak + Eggs with Crispy Potatoes and opted for the bottomless Veuve Clicquot for $25. It was really delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and the potatoes were seasoned just right. Whitney who I like the call the Shrimp & Grits connoisseur had absolutely nothing bad to say about Jack Rose's. She only wished that her portion was larger. I also thought it was neat that the Caesar Salad was prepared table side.

The conversations were really good for this month’s brunch. We discussed an array of topics from engagement groups to mental health. We learned a lot more about each other’s platforms and future plans. I was joined by Samjah of Style & Energy, Whitney of Whitney J. Decor, Dev of Dev and the City, Shavoi’ of High on Beignets, and Chaila of Baeology.
This was also a special brunch because it was my first sponsored one! I was able to gift the ladies some jewelry from Mignon Faget.
When you think of Jewelry in New Orleans, Mignon Faget comes to mind. It has been a staple jewelry brand since 1969. My assumption was that it was always pricey but there are some nice affordable pieces! Check out the Delta Dangles, Double Strut Studs Earrings and Tri Strut Necklace!
For my look I picked up the cutest Faux Leather Wrap Skirt from the Loft Plus Launch Party at the Lakeside Shopping Center to go with my Leopard Print Shirt (similar) from Pretty Little Thing. I added my Black Ankle Boots from Asos to complete my look. The weather was perfect and it was the first hint of fall!
