Serious Breakfast

I had Friday off. This, of course, is a recipe for mischief!

Instead of sleeping in too awfully late, I decided to take in an early movie, around 10:45am. In addition to that, I wanted Breakfast, but not just any breakfast. You see, I'm not a big breakfast eater. I typically have a toasted bagel and some cream cheese and I'm good to go. 

Today I wanted a Serious Breakfast though. So, I hopped over to the Gastronomic Fight Club website for their list of the Best-ter-est of Omaha. I live near 99th and Q, and I was seeing a movie out at Oakview 24 AMC on Center past 132nd. So I wanted something that wouldn't take me too far out of the way. 

The #2 spot in Omaha for Best Breakfast was Bailey's, associated with Absolutely Fresh Seafood. One look at Bailey's Menu, and I was hooked. 

I'm a big fan of Eggs Benedict, they had several varieties of it, and they brag about their Hollandaise. But, I was torn! Being from Texas, I almost consider it to be a requirement that any real breakfast include Biscuits and Gravy. 

So, once I  had settled in at my table at Bailey's, I set about trying to figure out how to solve this problem. Turns out, it was fairly easy. Since I'm not a big fan of Hash Browns (yeah, I know...sorry), I had them substitute my Hash Browns for a half order of Biscuits and Gravy to go along with my Beef Tenderloin Eggs Benedict. 

I had pretty high expectations and they were surpassed. I would rather that the Beef Tenderloin was seasoned a bit more, but as long as each bite had a bit of English Muffin, perfectly poached egg and Hollandaise, the seasoning was excellent. 

The biscuits and gravy, by contrast, were actually a bit salty, but no complaints on that note, it was great. And they had big chunks of a hearty, spicy breakfast sausage in the gravy. 

I'll definitely be back. Great experience.
