I already count breakfast as my favorite meal, but Gaia Bistro [2]'s baked eggs make mornings all the brighter. Chef Drew Middleton offers three combos, including one with chorizo, cheddar, and onions, and another with black beans, tomato, onions, and goat cheese. I favor the third option: a rich blend of eggs, onions, tomatoes, bacon, Mornay sauce (béchamel gussied up with cheese), and a sprinkling of fresh herbs. The meal arrives in a scalding-hot baking dish with a toasty flour tortilla on the side. You could use a fork, but why, when the tortilla is ideal for scooping up the custardy eggs and rich, velvety sauce. 1551 S. Pearl St., 303-777-5699
