During my visit to Snooze, I was captivated by its intriguing origin story. See, this wasn’t just any other eatery — it was the brainchild of Jon and Adam who, back in 2006, decided San Francisco needed a place for folks to enjoy a wholesome breakfast at the crack of dawn. After observing night owls' love for an early morning feast, they embarked on a mission to create a restaurant that offered breakfast options throughout the day. There I was, flipping through a menu adorned with classics like eggs benedict, pancakes, Belgian waffles, all the way to their novel creations like avocado toast and hot cocoa!
My Love Affair with the Snooze Benedict
I discovered Snooze was renowned for its specialty eggs benedicts, served hot and fresh — all day, every day. I could order it the traditional way or try The Bennie, a mouth-watering masterpiece of two poached eggs sitting pretty on toasted English muffins, accompanied by ham, cheese sauce, and hollandaise sauce.
On the other hand, for the veggie lovers, there's The Cat Bennie. Imagine two poached eggs on toasted English muffins, accompanied by crispy potatoes, onions, tomatoes and spinach, draped in a succulent pesto sauce - it's their crowd-pleasing vegetarian option. My taste buds were ready to party!
Coffee Mugs with a Twist at Snooze
The coffee mugs at Snooze caught my attention. Sourced all the way from a Tuscon, Arizona based company, HF Coors, each mug was so smooth and durable, all thanks to a unique hot pressing process that de-bubbles the final product. As a coffee enthusiast, sipping my morning cup of joy from these was a treat.
