**Update 18.03.10: Sadly, Food Solutions, who make these beauties, have taken up a contract in Langebaan or thereabouts, and are no longer selling their delicious eggs benedict at the market *sob* **
Would ya look at this beauty? I found this delectable eggs benedict not at a fancy restaurant or cafe but at market! At the Earth Fair Market in Tokai, to be exact.
Two eggs, perfectly poached, on top of a potato and onion rosti, crispy streaky bacon, topped with a hollandaise sauce. Add a glass of Avondale’s biodynamic bubbly to the picture and you have, folks, what I consider a perfect Saturday morning!
The creators of this fabulous dish are Food Solutions, who don’t seem to have a website, but do have contact numbers I’ll leave at the bottom of this post. Other offerings they provide are the smoked salmon, chive and scrambled egg wrap with hollandaise sauce (R40) and a selection of mix-and-match salads for R35.
Not surprisingly the eggs benedict sold out before the end of the market, as did the salmon wraps, but they’ve promised to make sure there’s more for next time.
And, for me, there will definitely be a next time, and another, and another…
The Earth Fair Food Market is on at the South Palms Centre in Tokai (near Builders Warehouse) on Saturdays (9-2:30pm) and Wednesdays (3pm-8pm). To contact Food Solutions you can phone either Max Bothe on 076 030 1546 or Jenny le Roux on 083 655 6992.
