Hub & Spoke

1100 East 1300 South | Salt Lake City

 

One of my favorite dishes in the world is eggs Benedict, and Hub & Spoke’s Crab Salad Eggs Benedict that is one of the best in the city. This unique benny has a few stand out components. The crab salad, tossed in a heaping helping of arugula, is a great topper, but what really sets this dish apart are the cornmeal griddle cakes. The cornmeal is light and airy with amazing texture and flavor. I would trade out the conventional English muffin for a Hub & Spoke griddle cake any day. Additionally, the Hollandaise is light and buttery and not at all overbearing, but rather a complement to the fresh, mostly local ingredients. Top this brunch dish off with avocado, tomato, and perfectly poached eggs, and you have an eggs Benedict lover’s dream come true.

Eggs benny not your thing? Hub & Spoke has an extensive menu serving upbreakfast, lunch, dinner, and even boozy milkshakes.
