brunch
1. Especially in UK. A commonly used term for any meal eaten in late morning or early afternoon, as the first meal of the day, serving simultaneously as both breakfast and lunch. Meals typically eaten as brunch include a fry-up, cheese on toast, pancakes or leftovers from the previous night's dinner.
2. Especially in North America. A buffet-style meal eaten together with friends as a social occasion, any time from mid-morning to late afternoon, usually in café or restaurant, but potentially also at home. Usually consists of typical breakfast foods, such as toast, pancakes, cold meats, cheese, sausages, bacon, bread, jam and cakes. Chiefly associated with bourgeois hipsters and middle-aged socialites.
