Sonnenalp Resort

The Sonnenalp in the Allgäu is a resort with a long family tradition, now run by the fourth generation. At breakfast, the Eggs Benedict arrives carefully plated.

On the plate

Instead of cooked ham, crispy bacon sits beneath the egg, topped with cress and fine chilli threads, surrounded by a ring of colourful diced vegetables. Visually, quite ambitious.

Taste-wise the result is tasty and flawless, and the egg is good. It’s just that nothing stands out: no element you remember, no sauce that surprises. A clean Benedict that disappoints no one and thrills no one.

Go

If you’re on holiday here, you’ll have a good breakfast. It isn’t worth a detour of its own.
