Who do you think makes the best eggs benedict in all of SB? These photos were taken of two versions of the dish at Jeanine's on Saturday.

My favorite ever is called "the special benedict," it's only available on weekends and you have to ask the right server(s) as it's not even on the regular menu. It's made with fresh basil, diced tomatoes, sautéed jalapeños, country ham (instead of canadian bacon) and I forget what else in addition to the other regular benedict ingredients. Mmmm, my mouth is watering at the thought.

Jeannine's is pretty good. We also like the eggs benedict with choron sauce at Savoy Cafe.

Domingo's in Goleta occasionally has " moe's benedict" with a chorizo/potato mix instead of ham. Yummy!

That sauce does not look like hollandaise. We make a great one at our house with poached ducks eggs and duck egg hollandaise. Decadent.

Locally, Esau's hands down...everything is fresh and a real hunk of real ham...yum. If you are going to Big For Sure, yes Deetjen's is good, so is the Ventana Inn and Big Sur Bakery...oh hell, who cares what you eat in Big Sur it's freaking fabulous there!!!

244P - You must go way back to remember Tom Esau. When he owned and did the cooking, everything there was so good. It was really a neat place to eat, but you couldn't loiter as it was always full. Great memories.

D'Angelos is the best breakfast in my opinion. I just love the way their food tastes and their benedict is no exception. Although...Eggs Rose is my fave!

Again, Esau's used to be good when Tom was doing the cooking. The food is terrible and the owners are rude.

Crab Cakes Benedict at the Boathouse is the best. Mesa Eggs Benedict are good too.
