Brunch is a classic American meal. Most American cities have a dawning establishment that serves you a good morning meal, or brunch.
El Torito is one of these local restaurants that offer brunch. It is not your typical brunch menu though, in that it does not include eggs!
The emphasis at El Torito is on meat and potatoes, rather than vegetarian or vegan food. But what they do have includes eggs! And host an event called The Saturday Night Massacre every month where they offer two different types of eggs: sunny side up and black and blue.
This event gives you the opportunity to try two different kinds of brunch- ones with meat and ones without! Both are delicious and will keep you coming back for more.
This article will talk about The Saturday Night Massacre event which takes place every month at El Torito.

For example, a pair of yoga pants or a long sleeve shirt, a sweatshirt or a thermal shirt is okay to wear. A holo or satin top is also okay if done properly.
If you are going for a more formal look, a nice coat or jacket is required. Both can look nice over a tight top and/or the wrong shoes. Or if you are more relaxed, like me, just go with the soft flanneelier type top and the jeans!
