Eggcellent Easter Eating

We were a little surprised when a recent caller mentioned "I'm having a challenge finding restaurants in Gainesville serving Easter brunch." So pardon the pun, but we hopped right on the holiday brunch search mission.
In no time, and in true champion Easter Egg hunting mode, we found several restaurants that traditionally serve weekend brunches every Sunday and several that are putting on a special spread in honor of the Easter celebration. (And FYI each inquiry to each restaurant included "call for reservations" advice.)
So where to go for a special Easter Brunch in Gainesville?
Here's a sampling of a few we found that are adding a little something extra this Sunday:
  • Paramount Plaza Hotel and Suites is serving an elaborate Easter Brunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
  • Hilton University of Florida Conference Center is putting out it's Easter finest by serving brunch from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
  • Sweetwater Branch Inn has a very special Easter Brunch from 11 a.m to 3 p.m. Normally, brunch is only open to guests of the Inn, but this Sunday it has opened its doors to the public.
  • Sisters , a popular breakfast haunt in the upscale Haile Village in Soutwest Gainesville, is whipping up egg-straspecial Brunch (you just had to know that was eventually gonna show up) from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
  • Emiliano's Cafe, where PanLatino cuisine reigns supreme, is spicing up their normal Sunday Brunch to fortify anybunnies appetite (okay, we'll stop).

Of course, bountiful and delectable breakfast spreads are on the Easter Sunday menu at:
