This recipe is a specialty of the Candlight Inn in Napa, California - just about 4 hours south of me. The Candlelight Inn is located in the heart of the California wine country, on grounds surrounded by beautiful Redwoods and Cypress Trees. They serve a 3-course breakfast each and every morning in a gorgeous romantic atmosphere.
