Our mission

What on earth are we to do with the enormous quantity of calories we generate racewalking? Eat Eggs Benedict, of course! Lovers of Hollandaise sauce unite, and join us on our pilgrimage to find the best Eggs Benedict in Salt Lake City.

Wikipedia has an entry on Eggs Benedict, replete with the origin of the dish, some photos, and variations it. But we are not going to concern ourselves with anything that complicated. We just like to eat.

You're probably wondering "Who is this 'we'?". As you've probably noticed from the picture, we are both racewalkers of the female persuasion. Kelly (on the left) is the Eggs Benedict lover. Tammy (on the right) is the writer.

True confession time. I (Tammy) do not like eggs! However, I do love Hollandaise sauce and I love to eat. And let's face it - Eggs Benedict is all about the sauce. Let me say that again. It's all about the sauce. So, the fact that I don't like eggs doesn't matter. I get to taste and rate the sauce. Kelly gets to eat the Eggs Benedict, savoring every morsel, and rate the entire dish. Together, we are unstoppable (unless we get a DQ from the head judge within 100m of the finish line). Oh, sorry - that was a racewalking joke.

Back to Eggs Benedict. We have a few ground rules: 1) No chain restaurants, because we're a couple of feel-good, knee-jerk liberals that way. 2) Atmosphere is nothing and food is everything. We don't care if you have some hoity-toity white linen and champagne flute ambiance. Just give us your best Eggs Benedict and no one gets DQ'd hurt. We're not against a nice environment for dining, but that doesn't figure in our ratings. 3) It's all about the sauce. Oh, did I say that already? Yeah, it's all about the sauce. Don't screw that up, and we'll be off to a good start.
