By Norman, who knows — Starting this month, we are taking reader submissions on things you want to know more about around Lake Norman. If we can find the answer, we’ll publish it here.
This month’s submission comes from Stephanie Bittner in Robbins Park.
“My friends and I all have young children with busy weekend schedules, and we would love to know when restaurants in Cornelius, Davidson and Huntersville serve weekend brunch.”
Well, Stephanie, you asked and Norman scoured the Internet to find the answer. Below are restaurant hours and a few unique dishes, as well as a list of traditional weekend breakfast restaurants.
