My travel pal Steffie and I are partners in crime when it comes to our shameless love for breakfast food; it’s the meal that can make or break my day. If I have a good breakfast, that has set the standard for my mood and I can carry the memory of delicious, taste-bud pleasing food with me throughout the day. I was more than delighted (but not at all surprised) that Liberty Grill delivered on such an experience.
Eggs Royale
Steffie loves her smoked salmon and ordered the Eggs Royale, “smoked salmon, poached eggs on sourdough topped with Hollandaise sauce.”The verdict? LOVE.
I ordered the Crab Cake Benedict, described as “spicy crab cakes and potato, eggs and Holandaise.” Their spicy is mild, but I love it, like a slow, well-seasoned burn. Fresh crab, light eggs so fluffy you’d think they were clouds and perfectly smooth, non-salty (a sign of poor Hollandaise) Hollandaise. I wanted more of you!
Crab Cake Benedict
Steffie and I reserved Liberty Grill for our last full day in Cork, Monday the 14th of June. We were sad to leave but decided to go hog wild and squeeze in as much Cork experience as we could from shopping, to a museum, to dining out twice and even the theater. It was our last day and we wanted a nice send off. Going to Liberty Grill that morning was not just to enjoy an exquisitely prepared meal but to say farewell to our pal Denis, who, along with wife Marianne, owns and operates Liberty Grill & Cafe Gusto. We could not have asked for a more ideal morning or breakfast.
