Early Girl Eatery

When Duke and I decided to take a recent vacation to Asheville, I was very excited about the food.  It seems like most Asheville restaurants are very conscious about locally sourced and responsible foods, and that had me excited.  I'm not the most eco-friendly person, but local food is just more fresh!

Early Girl Eatery was high on my list for the visit.  I'm a big fan of breakfast, and this farm-to-table spot sounded fantastic.  I wasn't disappointed.

I ordered one of their specials that day, Garlic Potato Cakes, topped with a tomato gravy.  They came with a biscuit and two eggs, which was more than enough for me!  The orange juice was fresh-squeezed, which was delicious.  Even the local raspberry jam was heavenly.

Duke ordered the other breakfast special, Banana Walnut Pancakes.  They were stacked so huge, it seemed like he barely made a dent in them!    I had to have a bite; they tasted like fluffy, air-filled banana bread.

Our breakfast at Early Girl Eatery was one of my favorite meals in Asheville, hands down.  When we come back to town, I'll be returning to enjoy it again and again!
