The EB Journey so far: 1-50
- A passion for Eggs Benedict — No location, the introduction to it all
This is the Eggs Benedict journey so far. Starting in March 2021 until today. Of course I ate EB before then, I just didn’t write about it.
I’ve had the breakfast delight in many places in the Australian Capital Territory, three other states, and in the UK, for this project. Some have been amazing, others not so much.
The journey is not done, this is merely a recap with the first 50 in one place. And for those friends that ask, “isn’t it boring eating the same food every time you go somewhere?” read and see just how different it is, every time!
