Executive Chef Kelly Armetta warmly greeted us as he gave us a sneak preview of his new brunch menu, which will roll out next month. I absolutely loved his emphasis on using seasonal and regional ingredients. This brunch was served buffet-style and there was plenty of food to choose from:
I started out with a strawberry banana smoothie shooter. There were also peach and mixed berry smoothies as well.
For my first plate, I nibbled on some fruit and a delightful strawberry pastry. I was really intrigued by the yellow watermelon and it tasted just liked a red watermelon!
For my next plate, I had the house omelet, which had portobello mushroom, caramelized onion and prosciutto. I also couldn't resist the lobster eggs Benedict.

We had a choice between mimosas and Bloody Mary's. Although I'm typically a Bloody Mary kind of gal, the warm summer weather had me craving a mimosa!
I finished my meal with something sweet - a blueberry muffin. The blueberry muffin was so moist and chock full of blueberries. I thought it was the perfect note to end my meal.
A sunny brunch on the patio was the perfect way to start my Sunday. Plus, I was happy to see some of my favorite food bloggers together and we actually remembered to take a photo together!
I had no idea that the Terrace existed and I'm glad that I got to check it out.
The Terrace is open from Tuesday to Friday from 5 PM to close, with a happy hour from 5-7 PM featuring $4 chef's seasonal bites. Plus, they have live jazz music every Thursday and Friday! I am definitely going to be returning here for a cocktail with some friends in the near future!
The Terrace at Avenue One is located in the Hyatt Regency Boston at One Avenue de Lafayette, Boston, MA.
