Discover Tobago’s Next Best Foodie Find
From the moment this dish leaves the kitchen and arrives at your table, it jiggles just slightly, boasting of the tender, scrumptious yolk inside both eggs. Upon first glance, it is truly a remarkable dish to feast on with your eyes and your nose!
Cutting into this Tobago-made, Italian inspired eggs benedict brings pure sunshine, brightening any mood, as the yellow yolk drips right down to all the ingredients beneath it. This pure bliss continues as you cut further down, past the tender ham to hear the subtle crisp base of the oven roasted focaccia. The delicately crunchy texture excites your ears next but the excitement keeps building still! The contrast of the warm, melt-in-your-mouth egg yolk will begin to play a full symphony when it hits your tastebuds and doesn’t stop anytime soon as the meat coats the eggs and focaccia in its juices.
The flavours cannot help but mingle in your mouth and can easily put you in a trance yet as you look around, you will feel grounded by the calm and peaceful atmosphere of our terrace, the beautiful sight of our garden and the inviting waters of Buccoo Beach further out – but let’s not forget to mention the grade A+ service from our wonderful and attentive staff.
