    We were visiting the area and looking for a Christmas buffet brunch. Found it at JW Marriott in Palm Desert. Only problem was it was a buffet lunch/dinner. There were no breakfast items to be had; no eggs, pancakes, waffles, sausage, bacon, oatmeal, toast, bagels, salmon (lox), etc. There were crepes, but they were dessert crepes. The assortment of delicacies besides lack of traditional American breakfast food was amazing! Fresh carved meats, sushi bar, pasta bar, seafood tower, baked rolls and the dessert room was amazing. Pricey too! Service was very good. Decor in hotel was welcoming. Just no darn eggs for brunch!
