Humble Pie
I truly enjoy brunch on an early sunday afternoon in downtown Raleigh, whether getting ready for an afternoon of watching football, nursing a headache from a long night out on the town or getting ready for whatever Sunday might bring.
Humble Pie offers one of the best brunches around. I’ve had brunch at Humble Pie many times, their menu ranges from the traditional southern biscuits and gravy to huevos rancheros. This trip however, I got another one of my favorites. The Cobelt Sandwich. Brunch starts with their fresh made biscuits with jelly/butter. Try the fresh squeezed OJ as well.
I am a fan of BLT’s, I’d consider them one of my favorite comfort foods right up there with mac and cheese. This sandwich is definitely something to try. They start with texas toast (already good in my book) along with bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo, they add cheese, sliced onion and a fried egg. If it sounds sort of like a fried egg sandwich and a BLT to you, then you’re catching the drift. The taste is like nothing I’ve had before in a sandwich. I’d suggest cutting the sandwich down the middle so the egg yolk runs out and touches every bite. Come hungry, this one is a monster.
