Flying Biscuit Cafe, Charlotte, NC




Creamy, dreamy grits eh?  Well we’ll see!  After all, I was bred ‘n born in the South, and I had my first grits back in the 1930s, and I’ve eaten them ever since, and I know what REAL grits are like.  So I tried that fluffy stuff Flying Biscuits called grits and was blown away by the best grits I have ever eaten in my life!  Those things were so good that if we had had them back during the unpleasantness, we would have won The War.  After one taste of grits like these, those Yamn Dankies would have just given up and turned dreamy and creamy and settled down in their new home.  The rest of the meal was good too.  I don’t care for sausage made out of anything but pork, but their chicken/turkey things were OK.  Eggs were good and the coffee was pretty good for American coffee.  
Piedmont Omelet
The venue is nice, with compartmentalized dining areas inside and beautiful patios outside.  They serve breakfast all day from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., also appetizers, salads, sandwiches, suppers and more.  You can find them at 7930 Rea Rd Ste A, Charlotte, NC.   http://www.flyingbiscuit.com/
High Flyer
I had the Piedmont Omelet and wife did the High Flyer.   More than we could eat.  And we did our best.  Service was great, and the Apple Butter was VERY good, full of flavor and bright highlights.  Biscuits?  Well, let me tell you about the biscuits my Aunt Lucille used to make way back . . .
