Buckeye Vodka Let's Get Brunched to offer brunch dishes, cocktails

The Miami Valley Restaurant Association may have just wrapped up Winter Restaurant Week, but it's already looking forward to a full slate of events including a brand new brunch event that was just announced for 2020.

Buckeye Vodka's Let's Get Brunched will take place at the Steam Plant on April 22.

"This event is to promote our area restaurant brunch business. We have so many awesome brunch restaurants, and it’s fun food, so Buckeye Vodka and I got together with our MVRA restaurants and came up with Buckeye Vodka’s Let’s Get Brunched," said Amy Zahora, executive director of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association (MVRA). "Each restaurant will offer one to two items from their brunch menus and their creative bartenders will feature their best Buckeye Vodka brunch cocktail. This may be a Bloody Mary or some type of Moscow Mule. And yes, we are holding the event on a Wednesday night, because who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?"

Each restaurant will be judged on Best Brunch Cocktail, Best Pairing, and People’s Choice for Best Cocktail.

TICKETS

Tickets will be $25 in advance and $30 the day of if the event does not sell out. Each guest will receive a Buckeye Vodka glass, four sample cocktails, and all brunch cuisine from each of the participating restaurants. A limited number of VIP tickets will also be available for $35 in advance and will include eight sample cocktails and entry at 5:30 p.m.
