Kirkland Tap and Trotter Now Has Brunch
Considering the popularity of his brunch menu at Craigie on Main, Tony Maws’ Central Square flagship, it seemed only a matter of time before the acclaimed chef added the weekend service to his nose-to-tail Somerville spot. Starting on May 18, Kirkland Tap and Trotter is debuting its first ever brunch menu with savory touches like shrimp and grits, pork chops, and a hot dog hash utilizing the gourmet frankfurters Maws perfected for Kirkland’s “Hot Dog Mondays.” Other dishes Maws says he’s particularly excited about include a house-baked sticky bun (“a great option for anyone who wants to have a simple brunch at the bar”), a variation on his notorious Craigie burger with kimchee Russian dressing, and a full kids menu with illustrations provided by his five-year-old son.
