Want to impress a visitor to the South? No one will argue with starting their day at Sunrise Biscuit Kitchen, where the five dollar combo (egg, cheese & bacon on a biscuit, with a hash brown and sweet tea on the side) promises to make clogged arteries worth your while. Even the New York Times endorsed the place as a must-stop when in the Triangle. Usually, any forms of protest will sound something like, “This must have a lot of sodiu-mmmphmmmpph”. And before you know it, one delicious breakfast will be tummy-bound.

Check out the line - drive-through biscuits are an easy sell around these parts.
We took our meal to a setting befitting such a grand experience – the nearby community rose garden, located in a municipal park off Estes Drive. Despite the unfortunate presence of small children hogging the playground’s tire swing, the roses themselves were quite lovely, and our biscuits were divine!


We tried not to think too hard about the level of grease on the wrapper. Or the bucket we spotted through the drive-thru window that looked to be suspiciously full of lard.
