WEST LOOP—avec's brunch service begins Sunday, July 21 at 10 a.m., running until 2 p.m. Chef de Cuisine Perry Hendrix will offer dishes such as torrejas (Spanish-style French toast), while pastry chef Dana Cree serves up Dutch baby pancakes and danishes. Of course you can't have brunch without alcohol, so look for a harissa bloody mary or a seasonal bellini. [EaterWire]

LAKEVIEW—Jim Burke has resurrected Witts, re-opening the bar less than two weeks ago. Burke has worked in the bar industry for nearly 15 years and wanted to open a "Cheers"-esque place, something "comfortable, nice" and "clean;" and he wants "to be known for value." The food menu promises large portions, such as a Southwest Texas brisket "sammich" and "3 Napkin Reuben." [DNAinfo]
