We choose this year’s winner of the Best Rice Village Brunch.
Best Brunch – Rice Village: Maximo
Buzzy Rice Village hotspot turns weekend brunch into a celebration of nixtamalized corn masa. Think masa cornbread with chorizo gravy, masa pancakes topped with peach jam and brown sugar whip, and confit brisket tacos on hot corn tortillas. Tack on roasted oysters dripping in green garlic butter, fat housemade bacon with salsa ranchera and an agave-smooched sangria or some bubbly to wash it all down.
