This morning I woke up essentially at the crack of dawn to make sure I could eat at this cafe with my buddy Jenn before rolling out of Atlanta (see PS for more info).Tucked in a quaint neighborhood around Emory University is a funky little cafe, the Flying Biscuit. The decor made me feel at home, with an entire sunflower room and glittery stars painted on the windows.
I got the egg-stra ordinary breakfast with hash potatoes, farm fresh eggs, grits, and a biscuit. Never have I ever tasted grits like this. Cheesy and fluffy and buttery. Just this dish makes me wish I grew up in the south.
And then there are the biscuits...warm and layered. They melt in your mouth... and come with an apple-raspberry sauce. The secret is half-and-half and light cream (no buttermilk). I'll try out the recipe and let you know how it goes... I even bought half a dozen for the road!

PS. Special thanks to my bestest buddy, Jenn, for showing me around town!
