Ljubljana · Slovenia
InterContinental Ljubljana
Truly run-of-the-mill: good egg, but barely any flavour in the sauce, bacon or roll.
Notebook
The Eggs Benedict
Truly run-of-the-mill. No particular flavour. Egg good. Sauce barely any taste. Bacon neither one thing nor the other. Roll the same. Perfectly edible, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Translated from my German notes.
The InterContinental opened in 2017 and is considered the tallest building in Ljubljana. The view over the city from up high is correspondingly good. On the breakfast plate, by contrast, the outlook stays rather flat.
On the plate
One egg on bacon and a bread roll, topped with a smooth yellow hollandaise. The egg is well poached, and that is where the list of strengths ends.
The sauce has barely any taste, the bacon is neither one thing nor the other, and the same goes for the roll. Perfectly edible, but without any particular flavour. An Eggs Benedict you could get anywhere.
Go
If you’re staying here, you won’t go hungry. It isn’t worth a detour, but you don’t have to keep driving either.
