Our friends in New Orleans kept talking about this restaurant and we were wondering how good it was. We had our uncles from out of town and thought it would be a good opportunity to check out the restaurant.
Their dinner menu is not too expensive ($20-25 for Entrées), but the branch is quite reasonable ($9-13.5).
It is a small, old house remodeled into a restaurant.
The whole building is fenced in and it is not easy to recognize as a restaurant.
Even with a big sign on the fence (picture above), I have missed it whenever I drove by.
I ordered Dante’s Eggs Benedict ($13.5).
Eggs Benedict is my favorite breakfast food in New Orleans. I know it has a lot of calories……That’s why I exercise daily, don’t I?
Regular Eggs Benedict has ham on the biscuit, but Dante’s kitchen used sliced pork loin instead.
It was served with honey-flavored hollandaise sauce on top of it.
It had a good amount of sweetness with the pork loin, and the butter-soaked biscuit was…………….amazing.
I gave the last tiny bite of the biscuit to Matto, and he said “That’s why you didn’t share with me”.
The secret ingredient of Southern food is always “butter”. Recipes for Southern food use sticks of butter, and they usually taste great.
This Eggs Benedict clearly had a high content of butter, and I could taste it.
They have eight side dishes for $3 and they were so huge!!
Matto ordered Alligator Sausage and three 2-inch sausages came in a small bowl.
Matto’s uncle couldn’t finish his bowl of grits although it was so “butter-ly” and tasty.
It is probably best to order one side and share with 3-4 others.
This restaurant receives an 8-Moshi.
Food was good and pretty reasonable. Parking wasn’t hard to find. I can’t complain…..
