Something we'd like to see more of around town is the biscuit sandwich. A weekend in Portland, Oregon, had us scarfing down saucer-sized pastries stacked with fried chicken, honey, mustard, and pickles from
Pine State Biscuits . A bit later we eyed
Urban Farmer 's cheddar-bacon biscuit with fried egg, sausage gravy, crispy chicken leg, and lemon marmalade and
Violetta 's grilled egg and cheese with local mushrooms. So many options, so little time.
Of course, here in Denver we have our biscuit go-tos---namely
Rise & Shine Biscuit Kitchen and Cafe (check
Twitter for the du jour offering) and the
Denver Biscuit Company ---but we'd like to see more full-service breakfast and brunch spots embrace the pastry outside of biscuits and gravy.
Let's see what you've got, Denver.
