It took a little prodding, but the waitress agreed to ask the chef to make a special plate for me: one Classic Eggs Benedict, one Avocado Eggs Benedict on the same plate.
Served with hash browns and a little dish of diced melon and pineapple, both versions were good but not excellent. The Classic came with one thin slice of Canadian bacon — tasty but not enough. The other version, with avocado slices instead of meat, was interesting but a bit of a stretch. In both cases, the Hollandaise had an almost perfect texture, but had too much lemon.
The last time I checked, their web site was down: “the host you searched for is not known.”
