re: Opinions on brunch?

Bourdain sums it up nicely:
Brunch menus are an open invitation to the cost-conscious chef, a dumping ground for the odd bits left over from Friday and Saturday nights. How about hollandaise sauce? Not for me. Bacteria love hollandaise. And nobody I know has ever made hollandaise to order. And how long has that Canadian bacon been festering in the walk-in? Remember, brunch is only served once a week - on the weekends. Cooks hate brunch. Brunch is punishment block for the B-Team cooks, or where the farm team of recent dishwashers learn their chops.

Meh, this is probably a 10 or 15 year old old quote from Bourdain, which was likely before brunch places became common. How many normal brunch places these days are really dumping their "leftovers"?
Are they really stockpiling their leftover grilliades, green tomatoes, grits, bacon, biscuits, and items for omelettes and bennedicts?
