Mouthful / Priscilla Tsai Photos from the Flying Biscuit

The Flying Biscuit Cafe, the chain restaurant from Georgia that touts itself as "a taste of heaven," opened its second Charlotte location at Park Road Shopping Center on Monday, March 29.
The cafe has a casual vibe with bright colors splashed all over the walls and tablecloths. The lunch crowd today was a mixed bunch consisting of mommies with children, older couples, and people looking to hang out in the good weather (they have a patio area).
Known for serving breakfast all day, their menu takes a while to peruse with a bazillion menu options (OK, that's an eggs-aggeration, but almost) to choose from. Their "Breakfast All Day" menu highlights eggs. Lots of eggs ... omelets, scrambled, sunny-side up, on the side, and over hash.
In addition to breakfast, they serve up salads of all sorts, burgers, burritos, pasta, pot pies, quesadillas, and more. (See why it takes so long to read their menu?)
The biscuits were delicious — like a hybrid of a bread roll and a biscuit, really. Each are dense and big, but didn't have the greasy feel of a butter-laden flaky biscuit. Topped with a little sugar, they were slightly sweet. I can see this place quickly becoming a hot spot Sunday brunch.
