Brunch

I asked my husband...

Wait.

Let me rephrase that.

I led my husband gently to the answer I wanted to hear and on Sunday around noon we had brunch at the Brick.

You can enlarge the photo to see the menu, but what I focused on was the Tenderloin Benedict.  It's been a few years since we came here for Brunch and I seriously dream about this meal.

As you can see from the menu, they specialize in Benedicts :)

They do them well.

Very well.

Here is my meal.  Oh, my goodness!

I don't know if you remember the movie Annie, the one with Carol Burnett, but one of the little orphans says "Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness" in a certain way.  That's how I say it every time I think it.  Sometimes I even say it out loud that way, but to be honest, I don't sound like a 5 year old so it just doesn't come out the same.

BUT, Oh My Goodness!  this is so good.

I was offered home fries or grits.  I chose the home fries because Tom doesn't particularly care for home fries, so I figured I might be able to eat all of the food on my plate.

Turns out he LOVES the home fries at the Brick, after he had a taste.  They were tossed with green and red peppers, so he always gets dibs on those from my plate.  (insert wrinkling of nose here.  Not a fan of peppers)

 I've watched the movie Julie and Julia enough times that I should know how to poach an egg by now - maybe I should do that and make this meal for myself.  But honestly, for $14 and only having it once every couple of years, I do appreciate the hollandase, eggy, tenderloiny goodness being served to me.  It makes it a very special meal.

Are you hungry yet?
