Breakfast Week 1 (file under It’s a Start)

Well my loyal friends. Week one has come and gone. Day one nothing. Day two nothing. Day three we did one breakfast. Day four we did three breakfasts and Day five we did eleven. And all I can say is that it is a start. I have done a couple of Breakfast Sandwiches, a few Eggs Benedict, a couple two eggs, and a few three eggs.

In the first week I learned how much fun it is to wake up at four thirty in the morning. But I found that I quickly got used to it. In fact this morning I woke up before my alarm went off which says to me that my body clock is both still ticking and accurate.

As I said when I mentioned breakfast in the first place. Until it is promoted and people really know about it there is virtually no way it can get off the ground. But I know in my heart of hearts that it is going to work.

The feedback we have gotten in the first week is great. My first Hollandaise in a while was less than stellar due to the fact that the first one I made was a few hours old so I did one on the fly but neglected to add enough acid. As such it wanted to break and was on the verge of breaking on the plate but fortunately it stayed put. I have since then made sure that my Hollandaise is solid and will last all through service.

Other than that everyone has liked Breakfast so far and I know it is going to fly.

Steven Wright once said; “I was at this restaurant. The sign said "Breakfast Anytime." So I ordered French Toast in the Renaissance.”

Are you dreaming big and inspired?

A la prochaine
