Small-plate brunches are all over the place these days, but some weekend mornings call for an overflowing plate of food. Duke’s Grocery (1513 17th St., NW) delivers with its full English breakfast, loaded with rashers (bacon), a banger (sausage), black pudding (blood sausage), roasted cherry tomatoes, braised mushrooms, and two eggs over baked beans and thick pieces of toast. Don’t want meat? The veggie version subs in a chive-potato cake called a boxty.
