For some, the weekend means only one thing: brunch. It’s an excuse to forgo the oatmeal, yogurt and bran cereal we know so well Monday through Friday, and gorge ourselves on first seconds and thirds of bacon, eggs, and various sweet pastries.
Sweet Baby Ray’s Restaurant in Elk Grove is getting in on the brunch game and starting a few new traditions sure to please the customers.
