An egg today is better than a hen tomorrow. (Benjamin Franklin)

Eggs were the ‘plat du jour’ at Cork Penny Dinners on Friday last (16th November 2012) where Cork-based family business Riverview Eggs put on a ‘Breggfast’ for all those in need at this very caring organisation in Cork City.

The day kicked off at 10am where Cork Penny Dinners was transformed into a hub of energy and enthusiasm as serving volunteers DJ and Richard Kelleher of Riverview Eggs and UCC RFC players (who are also sponsored by Riverview Eggs) Willie Ryan (Inniscarra), Peter McCabe (Kanturk) and Munster Rugby’s Darren Sweetnam (Bandon) began cracking, poaching, frying, whipping and cooking up a feast fit for a king.   The cracking egg themed menu for the day included a variety of nutritious and delicious dishes such as an array of quiches and omelettes as well as sumptuous Chocolate Roulade for dessert, all prepared by Beth Haughton from one of Cork’s most prestigious restaurants The Club Brasserie.
