Press critic Katharine Shilcutt declares that Saturday brunch hasn't taken off in Houston, because "Saturdays are our 'get shit done' days." Seeking to understand why people in other cities don't have similar shit to do, she turns to Village Voice critic Robert Sietsema, who says Saturday brunch is just "a restaurateur's ploy to sell you eggs and curdled Hollandaise at elevated prices, but most especially to get you drinking heavily in the afternoon."
