After a less than stellar night, thanks to Majestic Grille, I was looking forward to an easy comforting breakfast. We went down to the hotel restaurant Sole. The breakfast menu was pretty expansive. My breakfast companion settled on granola and yogurt and fresh fruit.
It took quite some time before it arrived, but I decided on the Traditional Breakfast. Two eggs any style, I chose hard boiled.
A little bit of an explosion in the pot I guess. The traditional breakfast is served with bacon, but surprisingly they had turkey sausage!
The sausage was delicious and exactly what I needed. The breakfast also came with seasoned home-fries & toast.
The home fries were delicious and I scarfed them down pretty quickly.
After an uneventful subway sandwich lunch, we returned to the hotel pretty late. It was also snowing…yes in Memphis – snow follows me everywhere! We decided to dine at Sole again. I really wish I had better pictures, but I’ll be heading back to Memphis soon and will definitely take better pictures next time. I started off with the Lump Crab Cakes.
They were served with creole remoulade, field greens & tomato relish. Woweee! I was thrilled with the deliciousness. The crab was definitely the main ingredient in there. I’ve had many a crab cakes that just don’t have enough crab so I was happy that this one was perfectly filled. For my entrée, I ordered the Blackened Sea Bass.
It was served with potato gnocchi, wild mushrooms and vegetables. The Sea Bass was amaaaaazing!! The gnocchi was a little tough so I didn’t love it, but the vegetables were well seasoned and tasted great. I was really impressed with my entrée. I still decided to order dessert. After all, the snow storm in NY meant my flight was cancelled and I would be leaving Memphis much earlier than I planned. The Molten Chocolate Cake was exactly what I needed!
I ate every single bite! The caramel goodness was also perfect. Sole was an awesome dining experience. All their seafood is fresh and even if it came from the gulf, it didn’t make me sick J The dessert was delightful and the service was spectacular. Thank you Sole for redeeming Memphis in my eyes. Now I have to figure out where to eat when I go back!
