Come for the breakfast, stay for the tunes: The Grille at Gold Dust West

The Grille at Gold Dust West (a.k.a. The Gold Dust West Diner, or GDW Diner because I'm lazy) has received high marks on this site before. I ventured back for breakfast today and was once again happy with my food. I was thrilled, however, with the music selection.

Places where you can find breakfast in Carson

...and some places where you can't. Now, when I say "breakfast," I mean breakfast foods. This includes breakfast sandwiches and the like, meaning that convenience stores are lumped in as "places." You might take issue with this, insisting that nothing purchased at a gas station convenience store is really even food. I see your point. But in the awesome and diverse realm of greasy breakfast foods, there can be no such discrimination. If it sells a premade, hot breakfast sandwich, it clears the bar for designation as a place where you can find breakfast.

So why even include convenience stores, when they all sell breakfast sandwiches anyway? Ah, but they don't! For example, you might think that every 7-11 offers breakfast sandwiches. You would be wrong. Someday, you will thank me for telling you this.

Had you not known, that day would have gone like this:

Hollandaise Horror: Inundated Eggs Benedict

Benedict Arnold

No discussion of eggs Benedict is proper without some kind of subtle reference to Benedict Arnold. Contrary to popular belief, Benedict Arnold did not invent eggs Benedict. Rather, he invented Hollandaise sauce and the chicken.

Which brings us to today.

I've had eggs Benedict at three diners in Carson: the Nugget Diner, Mom & Pop's 3^rd and Carson Diner, and The Grille at Gold Dust West casino. (Technically, at The Grille I had "Gold Dust Benedict.") When you're in Carson and in the mood for a pretentious-sounding breakfast, where should you go?
