Breakfast buffet at Alpenhof Lodge in Teton Village

On the first morning of our Wyoming vacation we ate at the breakfast buffet at Alpenhof Lodge. This was a complimentary breakfast as a result of Hotwire selling us a room reservation at Alpenhof Lodge when they did not actually have any vacancies. You can read more about that part of the trip by clicking here.

The breakfast buffet was very good. Had it come at the end of our Wyoming vacation rather than at the beginning, I would have considered it to be fantastic. Most of our breakfasts in Yellowstone and Grand Teton were disappointing, but the breakfast buffet at Alpenhof Lodge was impressive in terms of quality. While it seemed small at the time, it turned out to be large by comparison and exceptional in terms of quality when compared to the restaurants in the national parks.

The best part of the buffet was the real eggs used in making the scrambled eggs. Most breakfast locations we visited used the egg-ish mix that some restaurants buy in big cartons, which generally make either a runny mess or a dry crumble depending on the amount of water mixed into it. At Aloenhof, the texture of the scrambled eggs on the buffet indicated that these were real eggs that someone had cracked open that morning.

Coffee was brought to our table and our daughter was given a cup of hot chocolate that looked really good. Our son opted for apple juice, which he then poured into a coffee cup to pretend he was having coffee.

Along with the great eggs, the breakfast buffet included bacon, sausage links, a plate of various cheeses, dry cereal, fruit bowls, yogurt, bread and pastries, and good coffee. If you are staying at the Alpenhof Lodge, there is no reason to go anywhere else for a good breakfast. I do not know know the price since ours was complimentary, but it was one of the best breakfasts of our trip.

Outwrite Bookstore and Coffeehouse – An Accidental Day at a Gay Bookstore

Those who know me know that I often go to coffee shops when I need to get some work done, particularly when I want to do some writing. I’ve found that the coffee shop environment, for whatever reason (I’m guessing caffeine), is very conducive to me being able to concentrate on my work. While I […]

What is a photocopier? Hilarious video from a real deposition transcript.

We all think we know what a photocopier is, but in a lawsuit the precise definition and use of a term can be critically important. The video linked below is a dramatization of the testimony from a real deposition in which an attorney tries to pin a clerk down on precisely what he understands a […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 7 – Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel, Mammoth Springs Dining Room, Albright Visitor’s Center, and Stops on the Way to Signal Mountain Lodge

Although the Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel was quiet during the night, the hallways were rather noisy in the morning. This was not due to unruly guests, but due to the hotel’s design. The hallways are long and solidly built, but with high ceilings and widely spaced walls. The tunnel effect seemed to amplify sounds, making […]

2010 Top Superbowl Ads – funniest, most unexpected, classiest, most boring, and worst

The 2010 Superbowl game has come and gone, but the commercials remain behind to maximize their ad value for many years to come. Since one of the duties of a blogger is to write about trendy things that do well in search engines, we thought an article about the top Superbowl ads would be appropriate. […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 9 – Signal Mountain Lodge, the National Museum of Wildlife Art, Jackson Square, Moos, and the Snow King Resort

I woke up just before 5:00 a.m. and watched the sun rise from our cabin window. They do sunrises and sunsets very well at the Signal Mountain Lodge. The morning sky was cloudy, which made the sky look all the more impressive. We cooked breakfast in our room again, taking advantage of the last time […]

McCain and Lieberman introduce legislation to free the terrorists and make evidence against them inadmissible in court

Image via Wikipedia John McCain and Joe Lieberman have introduced legislation which could force courts to release terrorists who attack the United States by making evidence against those terrorists inadmissible in court. This outcome is not their goal, but in a fervor of pathetic political pandering they have introduced a bill that specifically prohibits arresting […]

Open-carry, Brady campaign, Starbucks, and the gun rights debates at Dunkin Donuts

Image via Wikipedia The debate among the open-carry gun rights advocates, Brady campaign supporters, and lovers of Starbucks coffee spilled over onto my Facebook page this morning after an innocent status update about Dunkin’ Donuts. It became so entertaining I decided it could be converted into a blog post. How’s that for harvesting the internet […]
