La Quinta Resort & Club

I had brunch today at the La Quinta Resort & Club. http://www.laquintaresort.com/
About 10 years ago Bev and I stay at this wonderful Palm Springs area resort.  So tranquil.  Our Sunday Brunch was the best that I've ever had.  Not just a figure of speech, "The Best Ever".  So naturally, I was looking forward to our early lunch today.  The hotel was as pretty as I remembered it.  As I walked around the restaurant, the food looked good and creative.  The buffet was 32 bucks and decided to order off the menu.  For starters the service was very normal for a restaurant not a $250+ a night resort.  Kinda sad.  The food was extremely good.  I was having lunch with 5 other people and they were pleased with everything (except the rushed service).  I thought it interesting (and quickly forget about it) Bev did not offer me a bite (or piece) of her bacon.  A few hours later as we were driving back home Bev had mentioned that the bacon was the BEST that she had ever had in a restaurant.
Conclusion: Location, Eggs Benedict, Huevos Rancheros and Bacon - world class.  Service - so so.
