French Toast cannot be improved upon…oh how wrong I am. The French created a mouthwatering breakfast indulgence. Thomas Jefferson brought over French fries to America. French toast came to this continent from England.
Who cares? I care, I love French toast. And, this delightful adaptation of toast dates back to the Roman Empire. Check it out, maybe that is where the saying; “When in Rome…” comes from. Well, I have found the perfect French Toast!
The Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach, Va. serves its French Toast with a unique twist, they add liquor. The description on the menu does it justice.
“OLD CAVALIER” BOURBON BRIOCHE FRENCH TOAST”, they had me at OLD. They add bourbon to their batter; 16 Tarnished Truth Custard-Battered Brioche, Cinnamon-Pecan Butter, and served with Fresh Berries.
The restaurant where they serve this perfect French Toast is called Becca. And the room it is served in is old-world and oh so charming with beautiful sunlight streaming in. Did I mention the syrup? I will let you discover the favor when you dine in Becca. You do not have to spend the night at the hotel to take advantage of breakfast at Becca.
