    We went for brunch this past Sunday and sat in the heated tent. We've been to the Morris many times for brunch and dinner/drinks. It is one of our favorite brunch spots because we can bring our dog with us when we sit in the heated tent. It is one of the very few (if not only) spots we can dine with our dog regardless of the temps or weather. The tent is not so much a tent as it is a solarium. It is all clear which shows off the gorgeous courtyard. The food matches the ambiance. Unfussy but gorgeously creative. Hubby had the breakfast burger and I had eggs Florentine. We both had the breakfast potatoes because they are honestly the best breakfast potatoes on the planet. We love this spot!
