JHC is founder and editor of brunch.org. Despite a multi-year search, he still hasn’t found anything to match his first memories of eggs Benedict: holiday mornings with cousins in New Hampshire. And steak? Secretly, deep down, he used to prefer a simple mesquite-grilled steak with Worchestershire sauce. But nowadays he's more likely to order a salad.
