Breakfast may be the most important—and dare we say delicious—meal of the day. But it’s also one of the most social. Something about sitting around a table savoring fluffy flapjacks smothered in syrup with your nearest and dearest makes for a memorable morning. Next time you find yourself awake and hungry for something off the beaten breakfast path, turn to this list for our top picks of where to go and what to order.
Mexquite offers both American and south-of-the-border creations, and their version of eggs benedict, Molletes, is a satisfying option for those who can’t choose. Sourdough toast is topped with refried beans, cheese, over-medium eggs, pico de gallo, green onions, queso fresco, and Molletes sour cream. But if you’re in need of something simple, nothing screams breakfast like Pancakes. Go full stack with three (or short with two); whichever you choose, they’re served with fruit and sweet maple syrup. Accompany your meal with a Mimosa and you’ll be satisfied till supper. 25095 Blue Ravine Road, Folsom, 916-9848607, mexquite.com Milestone in El Dorado Hills knows their stuff. They deliver creative offerings and exceptional quality. Everything is made inhouse, too, particularly their silky, delicate lemon hollandaise that brightens up their Classic Benedict. If you’re looking for something less traditional, we suggest exploring the Chorizo Rice (spicy chorizo, Spanish rice, scrambled eggs, Cubano sauce, and pico de gallo) and seasonal Pozole (spiced pork broth, braised pork shoulder, hominy, and fixings). Whatever you do, don’t skip their over-the-top Grilled Prawn Bloody Mary that’s as good as an entire meal! 4359 Town Center Boulevard, Suite 116, El Dorado Hills, 916-934-0790, milestoneedh.com
