Folks here have strong feelings about where you can find the best breakfast. I’ve eaten at a few of the contenders, but I have found my favorite in an unlikely spot. Good Eggs is a hole in the wall—think surf shack—with limited seating and even fewer menu items, all wraps. The proprietor describes the options as “basic, standard, and deluxe,” albeit with countless variations. Just when you think you’ve made your selection, the barrage of questions begins: “Cheddar, Pepper Jack, or goat cheese? You want black bean salsa with that? Salt okay? What about a squirt of hot sauce? Flour, spinach, or tomato-basil tortilla?...” I marveled as he kept it all straight while preparing 6 wraps at once on a grill that was less than 4 square feet.
With all the seats at the only covered table occupied and a constant rain falling, I said I’d take my breakfast to go. He took my money and handed me a bacon, egg, and potato wrap the size of a can of beans. I thought about heading back to Home Sweet Home but made it only as far as the car before I dove in. I managed about half of it, bundled the rest, and stood it in my drink holder for the ride home. That’s 2 breakfasts for $6.75. Better than fast food (which we don’t have here).
In the evenings during season, Good Eggs converts into The Grilled Cheese Project. The concept is simple: choose from 3 breads, 3 cheeses, 3 meats… I bet it’s equally delicious.
