When I was younger I did not like breakfast foods. As I have gotten older I have found I to enjoy certain foods for breakfast. I am still not a cereal and scrambled egg eater but I have found I really enjoy waffles, pancakes and Eggs Benedict.
Let me start by telling you that I love Eggs Benedict, well actually I love hollandaise sauce and would eat anything covered in it! So usually when I go out for breakfast I end up ordering Eggs Benedict and my trip to Jensen's Cafe was no exception. Many restaurants have multiple types of Benedict and at Jensen's Cafe you can order regular, chipolte, Florentine with tomato and spinach, salmon with dill hollandaise, steak with chipolte sauce, and Montreal with sausage patties and sausage gravy. Seriously! So many choices, it took me forever to choose. I finally decided on the chipolte Benedict, which is like the regular but with a chipolte hollandaise sauce. And the best part about Jensen's Benedict...? Instead of coming on an English muffin, they serve it on top of mini pancakes. At first I thought this would be gross, but the sweet pancakes with the salty sauce was amazing.
My friend Laura who went with me ordered the Garden Ome-Alot, and it was actually an Ome-Alot. It was one the the biggest and fluffiest omelets I have seen at any restaurant. She seemed very happy with her choice.
Most breakfasts come with a side of breakfast potatoes, which are diced, seasoned red potatoes. You can substitute cheesy hash browns or fruit for 99 cents. I chose the cheesy hash browns and they were the best I have had for awhile. Laura said she really liked the breakfast potatoes.
The breakfast menu is quite extensive. There are a wide variety of pancakes, waffles, omelets, egg dishes and plenty of side and a la carte options. The daytime menu also offers lunch options.
We went on a Sunday about 11 in the morning. It was about a twenty minutes wait for a table. But, there is a gift shop attached so you do have something to do while you wait. Overall, I found Jensen's Cafe to be a fun bunch option.
