The last time I stayed in Reno backin 2007 I had a delightful breakfast at Peg'sGlorified Ham n Eggs on Sierra, a stone's throw south of theTruckee Riveras it courses through downtown. In anticipation of a similarexperience I easily talked a friend into breakfast on a recentvisit.
My dining companion went for her standard breakfast of eggs,bacon and hash browns, while I sought spicier fare with a CajunBenedict with Cajunsausage, topped with a chipotle Hollandaisesauce, including a side of hash browns and slice of melon. I also optedto Glorify [my] Breakfast with added sides of picode gallo, cabbage slaw, and pinto beans.
Peg's prides themselves with the plethora of Benedictsthey offer and mine was none less tasty. The sausage was spicy butnot picante, the poached eggs were perfect, and the chipotleHollandaise sauce was awe inspiring. Rich and creamy but sportinga serious kick. The slice of raw jalapeño atop made for anappropriate garnish: a portent of things to come. The plank ofhash browns were crisp and not oily.
The pico of tomato, cucumber, corn and onion was unique and cleantasting with its light flavors. Cabbage slaw with a few whiskersof carrot was appealingly crisp; a little oily but notoff-putting. Pintos with a sprinkling of shredded cheddar werefirm and tasty.
My friend's rasher of bacon was substantial enough to offer me afew slices to enjoy; thick and crisp!
For any visit to Reno, Peg's Glorified Ham n Eggs is anappropriate start to a day of adventure, or in my case a latemorning spent lounging in bed, sated.
