The Flying Biscuit Cafe does what it does well.
My main objection is to what it does. They put sugar on top of perfectly good biscuits, they put sugar in otherwise delicious grits, and then they serve only turkey bacon and chicken sausage. Pork is the State Vice, for goodness sake, why serve breakfast meat that does not have pork in it?
The array of omelet and egg dishes is quite impressive. I enjoyed the Piedmont omelet despite the pointless pork substitutes. OTOH my wife's potatoes were lukewarm to cold, and her eggs definitely were not cooked as she ordered them.
The service was impeccable and the decor is adorable. I can see why the place is so popular. But their choices are not for me.
