I have been trying to get to Bogeys for brunch for over a year now, and finally my chance came this past weekend. It was forecasted to be gorgeous so I booked a table outside for my three girlfriends and I.
The ambience is gorgeous, outdoor tables are covered by a canopy/awning so the sun isn't too powerful. I started with a tangerine thyme mimosa and my girlfriends all did coffee. As we sat and chatted I saw so many beautiful cocktails being delivered to other tables and it made me wish I knew what some of them were.
For our breakfast entrees, two of my friends did the Bogeys Breakfast Plate, another did the Farm Stand Hash Bowl, and I did the Jersey Turnpike Benny.
We also opted for the Cannoli Stuffed French Toast for the table.
When it all arrived, we decided to put the French toast in the center of the table and my friend began cutting it so we could all take bites at our leisure. I noticed she was having a hard time cutting it, but it didn't strike me as strange. I took a bite and thought it tasted strange, but we were talking and I still didn't think anything of it. The rest of our entrees were great, so I didn't have another bite of it.
It wasn't until I got home and posted our brunch pics that I realized they did not give us French toast. This was toast, actual toasted bread, with cannoli cream. I do not know if someone new was in the kitchen, because all of the pics I saw of their French toast look so good and this is clearly not bread dipped in an egg batter and placed on a griddle. Had I not been having such a great time, or had I ordered it as my actual entrée, I would have noticed immediately.
I am still giving Bogeys four stars because everything else was great, our server was super attentive, and the ambience was beautiful. I just am wondering if anyone else has had this French toast experience.
