La Boum Brunch
“ We’re not just throwing a party. We’re pretending our parents are away for the weekend, and we have the keys to the liquor cabinet. This is not your grandmother’s brunch, this is LA BOUM." -Christopher L, Co-Owner
La Boum (noun: la booem) from the French slang popular with teens for “house party”
This is a revolutionary style brunch where guest dine and party and do everything they weren’t allowed to do under pure parental supervision as young adults. This adult only (21+) brunch party takes its name from the French slang for “house party,” also the name of the 1980 teen romp that launched the career of Sophie Marceau, the Parisian Molly Ringwald.
Guests will be enticed by a delicious brunch menu as a DJ spins an infectious playlist. The lights will be dimmed, the shades will be closed, and corks will be popping. There is never a dull moment as the hosts take you on a three-hour afternoon experience always with smart twist and turns from the mundane DC brunches. Likewise, this brunch is not for the conservative or the weary.
No Kids, No Chores, No Errands, No Laundry, come ready to party, forget about real life for the afternoon and be prepared to stay the entire afternoon. This is truly a unique viral party experience.
