Benedict’s, in the Promenade of Wayzata, is the latest from Mike Rakun, chef-owner of Mercy Bar & Dining Room in Minneapolis.
One of the newest on the Wayzata restaurant scene, and already a serious favorite of mine.
Sure, they serve the traditional breakfast fare, BUT they throw in their own twist!
They have all kinds of eggs Benedict, for instance, the steak Benedict, an ode to the traditional steak and egg breakfast.
Or grab a seat at Benedict’s breakfast counter for a pancake flight.
Yes, I’m serious. Pick 3 pancakes like the Elvis, Pineapple upside down, and Nutella strawberry. If pancakes aren’t your thing, don’t fret! They also serve Mini donuts with chocolate sauce!
I’d suggest grabbing one of their crafted espressos and marvel at the modern pineapple-themed decor with high ceilings and tall glass windows. Hello, summer retreat!
