Pancake breakfast, thoughts on biscuits and gravy


Took Evey out for a pancake at Hy-Vee this morning. This is the photo I snapped of her with my camera-phone as we waited for the food to arrive.

Qualities that I think makes a good biscuits and gravy:

  • First and foremost, the gravy has to be HOT! So hot it can warm my soul.
  • The gravy should not look like paste. Smooth gravy is not necessarily best. I want to see some texture that shows me this stuff was actually made by someone.
  • Lots of sausage.
  • It should have a little kick -- a little bit peppery.
  • The biscuits need to be giant and fluffy.

The b&g at Hy-Vee was just "OK." The b&g at Anthony's in Eudora is pretty awesome.
