Dear Wild Eggs

They often offer chorizo grits as the "Grits of the Day" or "Grits du Jour" if your prefer.

I can't get past the:

Chili Verde Huevos Rancheros
Two eggs any style with pork green chili, black beans, skillet potatoes, sour cream, pico de gallo, green onion and warm flour tortilla. $8.50

Dave Clancy made possibly the best Huevos Rancheros I've ever had while he was at .... come on brain, try and remember the place in Old Louisville, on 1st and Oak..... damn.

Anyway, that was possible the best breakfast meal I have ever had. If I can only get him to share that recipe!

Finally got around to trying Wild Eggs this past weekend...so sad it took us so long! Tried the Kalamity Kate's Benedict...really good! Hubby had the breakfast burrito and really liked it, they were even able to whip up some guacamole for him. The wait was long, but we expected that...but our service was good and got our food fairly quickly as well. It's definetly worth the wait...plus if you go to the one at Westport Village, you can run over to the coffee shop nearby and at least get the morning going in the right direction

The real standout though was the grits! I'm not normally a grits person...but when the server said it was Bacon, Mushroom, Roasted Garlic and White Cheddar I had to try them. OMG, those were the best grits I've ever had and possibly the best breakfast item as well! Nice smoky bacon, slices of mushroom, and enough garlic to notice but not overkill. I really hope they will have those more often, I'll be taking a few orders to go next time!

Liked it well enough that took a group of friends there for breakfast Monday, but went to the other location and tried the Surfer Girl omelette. Everyone was happy with their choices, one tried the Eggs Benedict and said it was the best she's tried. Know I still have a few more things to try there like the granola, blueberry pancakes and the french toast...too bad this weekend will be crazy pretty much everywhere or I'd be making my way there Sunday!

ANYWAY....


Is there a Chorizo Egg dish at Wild Eggs?

Kalamity Katie’s Border Benedict
Green chili cheddar corn cakes, topped with chorizo, two poached eggs and queso fundido, pico de gallo, sour cream, green onion and fresh avocado


And it's great

Sorry not everyone can afford that.

I have an affordable and wonderful 65 year old home for sale in the East Eand with a 1/2 acre treed lot. You could walk to Wild Eggs every morning for breakfast and Mojito's for dinner.

Sounds like a match made in heaven!

And with no price being listed it still doesnt dispel my earlier statement of affordable being relative.

$185,000 is the asking price....all things are negotiable.

You can also walk to Napa River, Tokyo......and so forth

My new favorite is the egg salad. It's easily enough for 2 people, or 2 sandwiches.

Mmm, I love a good egg salad and haven't had any for a while (it's just been off my recent radar). In fact the only places I can remember having a really good one would be in my kitchen or Nancy's Bagels. What's the deal with Wild Eggs' egg salad? Anything in particular stand out?

I really like the fact that the breakfast offerings in Louisville have gotten much better over the last decade. I always thought breakfast was weak in Louisville, but now with North End, Toast, Wild Eggs, and Lynn's (others?), it makes for great breakfast options.

Seconded, and Wagner's. And now that I think about it, Zapata's Corner. And if you really want to push the envelope, Jade Palace for dim sum.

I'll have to try some of these out. Though...with IHOP just opening...it's going to be a hard sell to pull me away from their daily delicacies.

Having bought a house in the last 5 years, your definition of affordable is relative.

Plus it's long past time that this attitude of "let's keep building stuff in the east end instead of other areas of town where people also live" has needed to stop.

I guess living in the Highlands ( considered maybe East but kind of central ) I look at location differently.
Back in the day I considered the east end to be Middletown or Prospect, now with all the holes being dug up everyday and also working in Harrods Creek with neighborhoods sprouting up everywhere I now consider LaGrange, Anchorage or Westport the east end of Louisville.

Then again I have no reason to leave the Highlands other than the river

Yeah that is not affordable.

(Heavy sigh) I wish I was back in the Highlands again.

Contributing that part of the conversation:

I have no desire to live in the Highlands. Live where you want to live, but whomever the person, should not be pompous about it . There's a difference between being proud of living in a certain community vs coming off as a complete...well. And, one person's arrogance is able to ruin the view of many different people.

FOOD:

I like it. I'm going to have to try Wild Eggs, but not sure about this weekend because of Derby.

I had breakfast with my dad at Fleur de Lis Cafe (formerly Sweet & Savory) this morning it it was great. I had a Blue Dog Stratta with Weisenberger grits and a biscuit. Also noticed they have some new beer taps sporting all locals/regionals. Don't know what coffee they were brewing but it tasted good too.
