Life-Changing Cheddar Grits
Posted on July 8, 2022 by Ching under Food and Drink, Travel.
I’ve never really liked grits but, after our last trip to St. Louis, I realized the reason I don’t like grits is because I’ve never really had good grits before. Chris Wilson, Brian, and I had breakfast at this place called Songbird. It was there that I tasted the best grits I’d ever had.
It doesn’t look like much but these grits tasted amazing. They were so good, the three of us almost went back there again the next day, except I had to play early in the morning and the restaurant wouldn’t have been open in time.
Here are pictures of the rest of our food. Brian had a basic breakfast sandwich (above). I had the farm toast with shaved ham and a fried egg.
Chris had a muffin breakfast sandwich.
Besides the very photogenic food, the restaurant itself was quite photogenic also with its brightly painted interior.
Here’s us, waiting for our food with eager anticipation.
Chris and Brian enjoyed some coffee while we waited.
Brian, my little coffee connoisseur, said their coffee was pretty good.
Here’s a pic of Chris’ cappuccino.
The three of us agreed this restaurant was one of the highlights of our trip. It was a real gem and one heck of a find!
It was truly a farm to table experience. They grew their own herbs out back and, I’m guessing that the “locally-sourced honey” on the menu came from this beehive.
I’m so glad that we came across this place while looking for breakfast options that day. I highly recommend checking out Songbird out if you’re ever in the St. Louis area. I plan to return one day, when we go back to claim the bottle of wine we won from our AirBnB host. LOL. Until next time, GNG.
