“Julia Pandl Serves Up Stories from the Sunday Brunch”  For Julia Pandl, the rite of passage included mandatory service at her family’s Milwaukee-based restaurant, where she watched as her father – who was also the chef – ruled with the strictness of a drill sergeant. Her witty, honest and exuberant “Memoir of the Sunday Brunch” marks the debut of a writer who knows that humor exists in even the smallest details of our lives and that the biggest moments we ever experience can happen behind the pancake station at the Sunday brunch. Pandl was born in Milwaukee, where she still lives and works. When she is not writing, she works for the Boelter SuperStore and moonlights as a stand-up comedian.
