#FRIED EGG IM IN LOVE CHICKEN FREE#
And I’m going for the Free Range Against the Machine – fried egg, avocado and Havarti. Whatever MED is, I see they sell it and so I’m buying a package of it next time I go there. I also think that the succulent thin sausage patty raised it to another level, but I wonder if the so-called MED (Magic Egg Dust) was the thing that sent it to the stratosphere. I think the hefty double-sided slather of rocking pesto goes a long way in explaining it, as does the addition of parmesan (an unusual cheese choice in the breakfast sandwich arena). How can a single fried egg on sourdough be so phenomenal? The sandwich looked dry, boring and maybe even a little short on ingredients. It was like a blind date showed up and despite the fantastic build-up, my first impression was meh, not so much. I hate to admit it, but when I first saw my sandwich peeking out of the bag, I felt a sudden stab of disappointment. Okay, FEIIL, let’s see what all the fuss is about and then I’ll tell you if you merit your nutty name. Eggs are cooked over-medium and sprinkled with our special spice blend called Magic Egg Dust.” It further explains that all “sandwiches are served on toasted sourdough bread from Portland French Bakery. Fried egg, homemade pesto, parmesan and a hand-pressed house sausage patty.” The menu describes the Yolko Ono thusly: “ Our signature dish. The patio set up was shaded and comfortable, and we waited no longer than five minutes for our sandwiches to be ready.

We paid for our order, and then sat and played some cards at the sweet little patio while we waited for our order to be called. There were quite a few options here, but the guy at their window so strongly advocated for the Yolko Ono option that the three of us ordered the same thing.

It’s similarly impossible to not crack a smile at some of the food puns on the menu. It’s impossible to miss the bright yolk-colored truck and it happens to sit next to one of my other all-time favorite food trucks, Carte Blanche.

On yesterday’s visit to Hawthorne Street, that neighborhood however seemed particularly ripe with intriguing dining options.įirst up for our girly four top (with three of my favorite eaters) was a food cart I’ve been wanting to try for some time.įried Egg I’m in Love, at 32nd and Hawthorne. In my hood we’ve got a couple places but we’ve got nothing near the goings on of North Portland or Southeast, and that’s just the way it is.Ĭome to Hollywood to grocery shop (we have Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, New Seasons and Discount Grocery), but if you want an array of inexpensive and tasty eating options, you’ll have to look elsewhere. No fair! In other neighborhoods, denizens wait and wait and wait for a good influx of grub providers to come into their hood. Hawthorne has got Porque No? and Apizza Scholls on one end and Lardo and food trucks on another, with miles of food loving in betweeen. Ample sidewalks, parking, and seemingly amenable landlords and affordable rents, and consequently restaurants and food trucks flock there. Some neighborhoods like Hawthorne have it all.
