Review Of Country Life Brunch (boston)

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Last Sunday my 4yo and I had brunch at Country Life in Boston.  It
seemed a little disorganized (I couldn't figure out the logistics at
first) but the food was pretty good.  I asked about fat content and
was given a fairly thorough oil content summary.  The person with  whom
I spoke claimed they are very conscious of using as little oil  as
possible, waffles & french toast have no oil and 1tsp of oil total
used for their (rather good) strawberry rhubarb tart crust.  They  also
had other baked goods which he said was low fat (I didn't press  for
details since I had enough other things to eat), a hot apple  cobbler
(w/no added oil topping), a delicious frozen fruit drink,  steamed
brocolli, plain rice, eggplant/tofu lasagna (not too heavy on  the
tofu), a curry(?) tofu dish (not lowfat unfortunately), a small  salad
bar (w/a delicious NF garlic & red cabbage dressing), two  soups, etc.
etc.   My 4yo ate tons of fresh fruit cocktail. For one  adult & one
child, it was $12.  (If you want real coffee you have to  bring your
own, which I saw others doing).  I forgot to ask about soy milk use
though, so perhaps next person to  go can ask about that?  BTW Does
anyone have suggestions for a REALLY NICE brunch place? My  husband is
planning on taking me out for Mother's Day to the Harbour  Hotel, which
has a great buffet but seems very $$$ for the amount of  food I can eat
there :-( I wasn't sure how he would take my  suggestion of going
someplace else but he was surprisingly amenable  (he even said how
about a vegetarian place !!!), but I don't think he  really wants to
eat scrambled tofu and we also want to go someplace a  bit dress-up.
I've been calling places but so far I haven't come up  with anything
clearly better. Has anyone been to Cornucopia?  They  suggested on the
phone fruit platters & salads, which makes me a bit  wary :-(  Aiko
