This month’s Food Prowl, for eggs Benedict, was the tightest race yet. Each of the three voters — me, chef Michael Rhoades and Derek Eskens of Gastronomic Fight Club — voted for one restaurant. Instead of a three-way tie, which felt too anti-climactic, we broke it down into a second vote with point scores. Dixie Quicks’ Bennie, pictured above, won with seven votes.

My first book, The Insider's Guide to Omaha and Lincoln, is the first nationally published travel guide written about the two cities. It includes my take on more than 150 restaurants, including many you've probably never heard of before. My "Insider's Picks" throughout the book include favorite thrift stores, dive bars and hangouts. It also has practical sections: one on where to stay when you're visiting and a second perfect for students or people relocating to Nebraska.
