On a cold wintry January Sunday in Atlanta, we ventured to West Egg for brunch just prior to sending our daughter off for her final semester of college.
West Egg Cafe
1100 Howell Mill Rd.
Atlanta, GA 30318
It's always packed with people, but the wait is usually short, and you can sip some coffee or tea (or any number of specialty drinks) while you wait either in the front bar area of the restaurant or outside.
Waiting will also give you a chance to decide on what delicious dish you'll choose. Not an easy decision...
Waiting for our table:
Once seated in the main dining area, our friendly waiting brought us a carafe of cold water and took more drink orders.
Here's what we went with:
Huevos Tejanos with potatoes
Scrambled eggs on Black Bean Cakes with salsa, sour cream and creamy grits
Pimento Cheese and Bacon Omelet with biscuit and grits
Whoa! Not exactly a place you want to go if you're watching your waistline - and we'll be putting extra time in at the gym this week, but the food is very good. The black bean cakes this go around were our favorite. And the Pimento Cheese and Bacon Omelette was fabulous. The Huevos Tejanos were good, but the red onion in them was raw and very overpowering to me. Won't get that one again.
Next visit --- gonna have to try the banana bread french toast!
