I decided today that I’m going to see if I can find the restaurant with the highest number of brothers. I am on strike and have nothing better to do with my time. Please join me.

Gonna go one brother at a time

No surprises so far

Getting to be a lot of brothers but this was expected

Fine, sure

Gotta be getting close to the end now…

Come on really

All right what the fuck

This is absolute madness

I feel like I’m going insane

Who is giving birth to all these brothers

Maybe there is no upper limit to restaurant brothers. Maybe it’s infinite. Maybe we aren’t meant to know.

I’m scared. I wish I never started this. I want it to be over. This is a cursed thread.

I’m weeping. I miss my family.

I…I think it’s over. I’m covered in sweat.

Gonna spend the rest of my life searching for a 16 Brothers deli and also terrified that I might find it

Well, guess what this means in Portuguese

And…Roman, I guess. Look, it counts.

Fuck yes, let’s do this, I fear nothing anymore

I think I’m stuck again. Please, everyone, I am putting out a worldwide call for some kind of food establishment involving 18 Brothers. It can be a restaurant, a deli, a food truck, a caterer, whatever. I need this. I can’t go back to the way things were. We’ve come too far.

After spending all last night fever-dreaming about brothers, I woke up this morning hoping for some solid brother leads, and Twitter did not disappoint. But whether they qualify is another question. Let’s start with 18 Hermanos in Mexico

18 Hermanos does produce eggs, which is food. But it doesn’t look like they SERVE food, and I think that’s the bare minimum we’re looking for here. So unfortunately I don’t think this counts. Adios.

Another intriguing option is 18 Brothers Hookah Bar. At first glance this seems like a winner, but again, when this started I was looking for restaurants. Many hookah bars do serve food, but it’s not clear if this one does.

Their Instagram page seems to be their only internet footprint and it’s almost entirely just photos of hookahs. According to the bio you can rent it for a birthday party or marriage party but maybe you’d have to bring in outside food? I will report back if I find out more

The hookah guys don’t seem to be checking their Insta messages but it’s ok because:

At first I thought this was just a store but then someone found this on their FB page. Yes it’s a store but they serve empanadas and croquettes and sandwiches on Wednesdays and Thursdays so fuck it, it’s a restaurant

Are the standards getting a little looser as we climb higher? Yes, but that’s how it goes when you’re looking for a restaurant owned and/or operated by enough brothers to fill out two baseball teams.

Also this is all I think about and if it ever stops I’ll die

Also we have a legit seafood restaurant waiting in the wings already at 19. (As some people have noted “hermanos” in Spanish can mean brothers or just siblings, and I am choosing to ignore that)

I can’t find 20. For some reason I though it would be easier than 19

Cafe in India. We’re still going. We shouldn’t be, but we’re still going.
