It's been a while since I last posted and so I've got some catching up to do! After a three month hiatus and the constant nagging and begging of the thousands of "golf and grub" fans, I've decided to post!
Let's start it off with The Egg and I Breakfast Joint in St. George, Utah. A while ago we were in St. George and decided to try The Egg and I which serves only Breakfast and Lunch. We had seen The Egg and I several times in St. George but for some reason never took the time to try the food. I am glad that we finally got around to it!!
The Egg and I Restaurant is an upscale breakfast and lunch concept. It was created by Rayno and Patty Seaser. They opened the first The Egg and I Restaurant in Ft. Collins, Colorado in 1987. Since 1987, the Egg & I has grown to 29 restaurants in Colorado, Texas, Wyoming, and Utah. It is anticipated that over the next five years an additional 40 to 50 restaurants will be opened throughout the U.S. Their website says that one is coming soon to the Salt Lake City area!!
That particular morning in St. George I was pretty hungry so I got The Egg and I's Taos Skillet which consists of diced chicken, salsa, black bean and corn relish on a bed of ranch potatoes with melted cheese and two eggs any style. It is topped with guacamole, diced tomatoes and green onions and served with a warm flour tortilla! It was delicious!
My wife ordered their Whole Wheat Raspberry Granola Pancakes. The Egg and I's Whole Wheat Raspberry Pancakes are whole wheat pancakes with whole raspberries and granola served with low fat raspberry yogurt instead of butter. When she first ordered them I was thinking how gross they sounded! Whole wheat pancakes with low fat raspberry yogurt??? However, after devouring my Taos Skillet she offered me some of her pancakes. They were awesome!! I could have easily ordered the Raspberry Granola Pancakes and walked away a happy man!!
The service at The Egg and I in St. George is "eggceptional"! The atmosphere is very comfortable and the prices are veryreasonable! If you happen to be near one of The Egg and I Restaurants it is definitely worth the time and money to sit down and have a very enjoyable breakfast! I highly recommend it!

i love the name! and i love cool breakfast places. so you would you order the taos again? it sounds way good!
what's the price range?
As one of the thousands of screaming fans, I sincerely welcome you back to the blogosphere, Jay.
This place sounds great. Utah County needs something like this--a good breakfast place that doesn't have the words "international" and "pancakes" in the name.
Yahoooo!!! So happy to hear that you are back! I have to say, I too would love to know price ranges on your dining out fun! Also, heads up, we went to Red Robin this last weekend, and if you are a Cherry Chocolate FAN, YOU HAVE TO GO ORDER THE CHERRY CHOCOLATE SHAKE! It is divine! I highly recommend it! Welcome Back!
I don't think Jay will post the price range, I think it was about the same price as a Mimi's breakfast. Neither of us paid attention so that is why he didn't post it. It was well worth it.
Zupas is really cheap. I think each meal is only about $8.
