Breakfast in Reno
If you will notice, I do not have any photos posted of the food …
Thing is, the food was gone so fast, I did’t have a chance to document it! It was that good! Delish.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and at the Reno Peppermill Hotel, Biscotti’s’ Restaurant breakfast gives you the oomph you need for a fantastic day! We split the Biscotti’s Ham and Cheese Omelet. Oh wow, was it incredible! Fluffy eggs, asparagus, prosciutto ham, fontina cheese, and havarti cheese all folded together and topped with hollandaise sauce. (Can you ever go wrong with hollandaise sauce? Nope, I didn’t think so.) The combination of salty, creamy, and clean (the asparagus) made for an excellent omelet. Grilled breakfast potatoes served on the side complemented all the of flavors presented in the omelet. Complete with coffee, fresh orange juice, and rye toast, it was the breakfast of champions! (I haven’t had breakfast yet today, all this talk of the nummy Biscotti’s food and I’m hungry!!)
FYI - The portions were enormous, so I’d recommend sharing! (-:
My Love of Coffee Shops Continued …
Here I go again, but when it’s this good, I must! Swingers restaurant is a fantastic place to eat, unlike any other. To begin, it has the best classic rock music playing from an old time jukebox, the menus are covered in 70s pop culture memorabilia, and they cater to all taste buds with something for everyone - meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans. I adore their Swingers Salad with tofu and topped with their homemade balsamic vinaigrette. However they saute their tofu and make their salad dressings is something wonderful.
For you meat lovers, the Swinger Burger is one of the best around; fresh, juicy, and salty, with a toasted bun slathered with a touch of mayonnaise, and just the right size. Also, one of their specials is the spaghetti with turkey meatballs, so fantastic! I don’t like meatballs, but their turkey meatballs are phenomenal!
They have these vegan desserts that taste so good, you would never know they were vegan! Chocolate chip cookies and cinnamon rolls and even cheesecake! Vegan cheesecake! Bliss.
I love their onion rings, their hummus and pita, their coffee, shakes, sodas, cupcakes, french fries, tofu chilaquiles, macaroni and cheese, organic eggs, asian chicken salad (one of their fab specials), tofu saute, veggie burger, stuffed grilled cheese, roasted turkey club … Oh, I think I like almost everything on their menu!
Swingers has two locations: one in Santa Monica and the one I go to off of Beverly and Fairfax. Go, go, go and have a swingin’ good time! ;-D
