Hyatt Breakfast Challenger To Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes + Win $25 Hyatt Gift Card

Posted on: May 24th, 2012 by: The Weekly Flyer

It’s been a fast couple of weeks for us here at Points, Miles & Martinis. We’ve found there is nothing better to slow us down than a full breakfast. We can even look around and enjoy the moment a little more when the breakfast is compliments of Hyatt Diamond status.

So when the Breakfast challenger presented itself, we accepted the challenge and settled in for another great Hyatt Diamond breakfast. It is tough to beat the Hyatt Diamond breakfast at the Park Hyatt in Buenos Aires, but the Lemon Poppy Seed pancake is the cake of gods. But this time we found a contender who may just have unseated the well known champion of the Hyatt Diamond Breakfast world.

But we don’t want to make the call of who is the winner, that will be left up to you, and we’ve sweetened the pot to get your thoughts.

Win A Change At A $25 Hyatt 48 Lex Gift Card

Leave a comment in this post telling us which Hyatt Diamond breakfast you’d prefer and we’ll select one lucky winner to receive a $25 gift card good for use at the Hyatt 48 Lex in NYC.

  • Limit one entry per contestant

Champion – The Andaz 5th Avenue Lemon Poppy Seed Pancake

The champion is well known in the Hyatt Diamond corner of the world. The champion comes from the Andaz 5th avenue. The Lemon Poppy Seed Pancake brings a sweet and citrus flavor right to your palate. One bite won’t do this champion any justice, you’ll soon find yourself in a challenge of your own to finish this giant cake from a pan.

It is also worth noting that the Andaz 5th avenue allows Hyatt Diamond members to order off the menu and comps the breakfast up to a $75 limit.

Challenger – Hyatt 48 Lex Homemade Jelly Filled Donut Holes

The challenger today comes from the Hyatt 48 Lex New York Brass restaurant. It brings 5 jelly donuts directly to the table for your nibbling pleasure. The sugar coated, crunchy on the outside, gewy on the inside donut holes are sure to be a delight to any breakfast patron.

Bottom Line

We applaud Hyatt for offering a great breakfast amenity to their Diamond members. It is one of the many reasons we continue to come back to Hyatt for business and personal stays.

So which do you prefer, a pancake or donut hole?

Konnichiwa Japan – Park Hyatt Tokyo – Part II

Posted on: April 27th, 2012 by: alex

Given its location and views, the Park Hyatt Tokyo could easily get away with selling you just a room.  However, it becomes quickly apparent that this ‘hotel in the sky’ is more appropriately labeled a ‘full service resort in the sky’.   As a bonus, I found the Park Hyatt treats Hyatt Diamond members to some… continue reading

Mrs Weekly Flyer likes to visit a Spa or two sometimes when traveling. So when the SpaFinder 40 SkyMiles offer came up last year I loaded up the truck.

I have a surplus of hotel bath products (none of which are Portico)

Posted on: April 8th, 2012 by: alex

I have a strange curiosity about the logic behind how bath products are selected by hotels.  The most glaring question is what was Hyatt thinking when they selected Portico White Ginger products for a majority of their properties.  It repulses just about everyone I know in the travel world.  In fact, last weekend I was… continue reading
