Eggs Benedict

Saturday I decided I wanted to eat Eggs Benedict. I am very pleased with the turnout. As we all know, I LOVE to cook, and I especially like trying out new things.

There are several stories about where the orginal Eggs Benedict originated but my persnal favorite is the story of Lemuel Benedict. A retired Wall Street stock broker, claimed that he had wandered into the Waldorf Hotel in 1894 and, hoping to find a cure for his morning hangover, ordered "buttered toast, poached eggs, crisp bacon and a hooker of hollandaise sauce.

Here is a pic of how my first eggs benedict attempt turned out!
