| - Wow! I was pretty hungry with no high hopes for lunch. I checked the nearby restaurants on Yelp, of course. First Watch popped up first and it took about 10 seconds for me to see that this was worth a shot. They were still open so I popped in the directions. Three minutes later, I was there. The hostess told me it was a 15 minute wait but offered the "bar" seating. This was a table that sat 10 people. I sat and waited a few minutes while perusing the menu. I was excited to be there. When the waitress arrived, I ordered water and the Chicken Chimichurri Hash. This was a limited time special and it quickly caught my eye. The ingredients were two cage-free eggs (had to be over medium), atop fresh, seasoned potatoes tossed in Chimichurri sauce with all-natural chicken breast, Monterey Jack, house-roasted onions and kale. The dish was served with whole grain artisan toast with all-natural preserves and fresh fruit. Let me tell you, my eggs were perfect and my bar mate, Angela, and I had the same dish so we discussed it while we ate. It was heavenly! The bread was fresh and delicious. The preserves were mouth watering and the fruit, well, it was freshly prepared and simply divine. I was elated to be in this restaurant to experience freshly prepared food. The taste of farm-to-table quickly grabbed me in and I will jump at the opportunity to visit this restaurant again. I already know what I am going to order, unless they have another limited time special that trumps it. Can we please get one North of Charlotte?
