Looking back

The SD Foodie take

Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.

Poached eggs sit on smoked salmon under hollandaise and capers, with a heap of sliced roasted potatoes and a wedge of lemon.

Smoked salmon is the obvious order on Vancouver Island, and Roger went for it at breakfast. The caption is simply the dish name — Smoked Salmon Benny — tagged to Langford and Victoria.

The quick critique

What stood out

  • Smoked salmon under hollandaise
  • Capers on top
  • Roasted potatoes on the side

Bottom line

Archive verdict

The right breakfast for the region: smoked salmon, done as a Benedict.
