Biscuit Bitch (Seattle)

When I was planning my trip to Seattle, I asked my friend, who was born and raised there, what were some of the restaurants I should check out. One of the first places she mentioned was Biscuit Bitch, a breakfast spot that specializes in-you guessed it-all things biscuits. Nothing on the menu is served without one. They're the staple, base ingredient of everything this delicious spot has to offer.

They have three locations; I went to the one in Belltown. The down-to-earth ambiance and clever menu were my first impressions that Biscuit Bitch was a special place. They have a charming drink menu that rivals any niche hipster coffee shop. I ordered a Seattle Fog to drink, comparable to Starbuck's London Fog, with vanilla and orange zest. The zest was optional, but I found it really elevated the beverage. It was a wonderful way to wake up in the morning. I sat at a bar facing the window and sipped while waiting for my food order to be called. 

The service style is quite chill. You order and pay, have a seat, and when your drink and food are ready, you grab it. This location was pretty small and jam packed with people, and it was entertaining to people-watch in the short interim between ordering and eating.

Everything on the menu ends in the word "Bitch" (so yeah, maybe not the best place to bring small children if language is a concern). The Easy Bitch caught my eye and was an absolute delight. It's a pretty straightforward dish, two biscuits topped with pork gravy and two gorgeously runny over easy eggs. The biscuits were thick and fluffy, with nice, crisp edges and not too dense. It was easy to see why these biscuits are the restaurant's pride and joy. The pork gravy was hearty and delicious. Putting the egg on top added the perfect touch to this wonderfully savory dish.

The plating here is simple and not pretentious. The biscuits are put in cardboard boats, easy to eat out of and dispose of. 

Biscuit Bitch was one of my favorite food stops during my trip to Seattle! I'm so envious that we don't have a location here in Detroit. If you ever head to the Pacific Northwest, this is a stop you must see. There's just no way you can miss it. The quality is phenomenal, tastes great, and the price point is very affordable, averaging $8.28 a pop. They also have vegetarian and gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions.
