Title — Ocean Whisper Brunch™

“Salt-kissed breeze, cradle our hearts while quahog tides and coffee milk awaken day-dreamed souls.”

Origin Lore — Myth of Birth

When the Moon-stone mermaid of Narragansett Bay first surfaced, she gathered
quahogs, sea salt, and golden corn to weave a dawn feast for sailors lost in
fog. Her song mingled with gull cries, stirring sweet steam from coffee-milk
tides and griddling johnnycakes on driftwood fire. Those nourished wanderers
carried her recipe ashore, birthing the ritual of Ocean Whisper Brunch™.

Brand Mythos — Expanded Creation Story

Brand Origin Story

In a restored red-brick boathouse on Providence’s Riverwalk, a RISD baker
and a third-generation quahogger fused art and tide. They crowned panko-
stuffed quahog “stuffies” with poached eggs, blanketed them in brown-butter
hollandaise, and plated the towers beside maple-sea-salt johnnycakes and
chilled coffee-milk foam. Patrons swore they tasted the mermaid’s lullaby in
each bite.

Expansion Prophecy

Within five years, Ocean Whisper kiosks will anchor every New England ferry
terminal, gifting travelers a “Bay Blessing Brunch” before each voyage.
By 2032, the brand’s bottled coffee-milk foam will rival nitro cold brew
nationwide, turning Rhode Island’s tiniest-state pride into global gustatory
myth.
