A Word From Our Owner, Janice Kuz

Look, we could've just done one boring eggs benny and called it a day. But where's the fun in that? The trilogy gives you options - whether you're craving that classic bacon hit, feeling a bit fancy with smoked salmon, or want something different with our mushroom number (which even the meat lovers rate). Each one's built on the same solid foundation but takes you on a completely different flavour journey.

I'm Janice Kuz, owner of The Nines Emporium, and after nearly 10 years of perfecting these bad boys, I can honestly say the Benny trilogy at The Nines represents everything we're about - taking something classic and making it damn good. These three dishes have become the stuff of local legend, and I reckon once you try one, you'll be back to conquer the other two.

Why a Trilogy is Better Than One

Why settle for one when you can have three? That's our motto when it comes to Eggs Benedict, and honestly, it’s what sets us apart on the Sunshine Coast. We believe in epic feeds that fill your belly and your camera roll, and our Benny trilogy delivers on all fronts. It’s not just about offering choices; it’s about perfecting each choice so it stands strong as a modern classic in its own right.

You see, the idea of a "trilogy" here at The Nines is all about giving you a full spectrum of deliciousness. We don't just throw things on a plate; we craft each dish with intention. While some might think "Benny trilogy" refers to some film series or a musician, for us, it's all about the food, specifically our star breakfast lineup. There's no connection to snowboarding events, rappers, or film directors here. Our "Benny" is short for Benedict, and our "trilogy" is a testament to our dedication to variety and quality right here in Maroochydore.

We've heard the buzz, seen the happy faces, and read the reviews. Our customers love the choice, and it's become a fun challenge for many to try all three. It’s a bit of a local tradition, actually. This approach to our menu, offering a range of stellar options within a beloved dish, is part of our overall commitment to making The Nines the best breakfast spot on the Sunshine Coast. We’re always striving to raise the bar, and the Benny trilogy at The Nines is a prime example of that commitment. It just goes to show, when it comes to breakfast, more really is more!

The Nines' Twist on a Classic Brekkie

We're not just serving up any old Eggs Benedict; we're serving up "damn good" Eggs Benedict. We start with perfectly toasted sourdough, because a solid foundation is key. Then comes the magic: our perfectly poached eggs, nestled on a bed of fresh spinach and creamy avocado. But the real game-changer? Our hollandaise sauce. It's rich, it's creamy, and it ties everything together in a warm, golden hug. And because we know you love a bit of crunch, every single Benny in our trilogy comes with a golden, crispy hash brown. That’s our secret sauce – literally and figuratively.

This isn't just about throwing ingredients together; it's about balance, texture, and flavour that pops. We're all about making classic dishes feel fresh and exciting. Our approach to creating the Benny trilogy at The Nines is driven by a simple philosophy: we don't do boring. We take a familiar favourite and inject it with our unique Nines energy and personality. The result? A plate of pure joy that tastes as good as it looks. We reckon our dedication to getting the details right is what makes our Benny trilogy a standout. It's the kind of food that makes you want to linger, savour every bite, and maybe even snap a pic for the gram. You can check out all our other mouth-watering options on Our Food page too.

And here's where things get really interesting - our Roasted Garlic Mushroom Benny at $26. This isn't just a veggie option thrown in as an afterthought; it's a proper game-changer that even the most dedicated meat lovers end up ordering again.

We use roasted garlic thyme mushrooms that are packed with earthy, aromatic flavour, topped with two poached eggs and here's the kicker - pesto hollandaise . Yep, you heard that right. We've taken our classic hollandaise and given it a herbaceous twist that'll blow your mind. Add in that essential hash brown on toasted sourdough and you've got something really special.

The pesto hollandaise is what makes this dish sing - it adds this fresh, bright flavour that lifts the whole plate.

What to Drink with Your Benny

Now, a legendary Benny deserves an equally legendary drink to go with it, and nothing beats a perfectly brewed coffee from The Nines. We pour Vintage Black coffee - a local blend by Tim Adams that's absolutely damn good and gives you that big brekkie energy you need to tackle the day.

My personal favourite combo? An oat latte with the Bacon Benny - it's honestly a match made in heaven. The creamy oat milk complements that rich hollandaise beautifully, and the coffee cuts through all those delicious flavours without overpowering them.

We're always experimenting with new drinks too, so keep your eyes peeled for our cold foam creations and other cool concoctions that make your coffee experience anything but boring. A good coffee isn't just a drink at The Nines - it's the perfect companion to your epic feed, setting you up for an absolute cracker of a day.
