There's nothing like brunch consisting of eggs benedict. Stacks in Burlingame, CA is so far, the only place I know who serves eggs benedicts daily. Other brunch places make it their specials for weekends only, so having eggs benedicts on "any old day" at Stacks is pretty sweet! (Well, not literally!)Stacks not only has eggs benedicts, but they have other versions of the benedicts with hollandaise sauce as well: eggs louis (crab meat, spinach) & eggs florentine (ham, spinach). Pictured above is a combination. They don't serve it as such, but if you're lucky enough to go with someone who will split theirs with you (Thanks, Drew), all the other benedicts are worth a try! The hollandaise sauce is fresh and has not been sitting under a lamp and is free-flowing and not rubbery. The eggs are just poached to perfection--runny yolk, the way poached eggs are supposed to be!
Going to Stacks should be done first thing in the morning when they open at 7am. Otherwise, be prepared to wait for long lines easily form outside the free coffee they have right outside. They close at 2:30pm. I frequent the Stacks in Burlingame for ease of parking. There are other locations in Menlo Park and San Francisco (Hayes Street), too.
Stacks was introduced to me by a dear old friend some 12 years ago and ever since, I have known it to be an excellent breakfast place. While the benedicts are my favorite, I have also tried their omelets (while I was pregnant) and they don't disappoint!
Go try Stacks for yourself and you'll leave happy.
