Xico, Bar Dobre Launching Brunch; Grill Disasters

DIVISION/CLINTON—Chef Kelly Myers at Xico will join the brunch bandwagon, officially launching a weekly Sunday-only brunch service on July 14. The brunch menu will offer dishes like chilaquiles, a refried bean Oaxaca torta, and twists on familiar evening dishes — sopaipillas, for example, will arrive with berry compote and yogurt instead of beans and cheese. Brunch will be served from 10a.m. until 2p.m. starting next Sunday. [EaterWire]

HAWTHORNE—Meanwhile, SE Hawthorne's Polish spot Bar Dobre will debut its first brunch service this weekend. Menu details are scarce (though hints at dishes like housemade-sausage scrambles), but brunch will be available on Saturdays and Sundays, from 10a.m. to 3p.m. [EaterWire]

EVERYWHERE—There's really nothing like a summer barbecue (and beer) to bring out the idiot in everyone, so here now, in order from purposeful lighter fluid explosions to potential injury, the best barbecue disaster videos we could find. Happy Independence Day, America. [Eater National]
