A Hangover Cure: Pine State Biscuits' Reggie Deluxe
The Portland Farmers Market at Portland State University (PSU) on Saturdays is one of my favorite Farmers Markets. My family likes to drive down Saturday morning or even Friday evening. We can't be late. If we are, the booth at Pine State Biscuits will run out of its creamtop buttermilk biscuits, and that would be simply unacceptable.
It's easy to find Pine State Biscuits. There's always a long line of people waiting in front. If it's your very first time, you won't mind. It will take you awhile to read through the menu and decide what type of biscuit breakfast you're in the mood for.
Since my trips to Portland are few and far between, I go for it all, the infamous Reggie Deluxe. It's a biscuit topped with fried chicken, bacon, sausage gravy, cheese, and a fried egg. Some say it's a hangover cure.
Pine State has become so popular since its market beginnings in 2006, they now also have their own shop, open seven days a week. So if you can't make it to the Farmers Market or if you arrive too late and find yourself biscuit-less, you can visit them at their new location.
And if you don't plan to be in Portland anytime soon, there's no need to deprive yourself of a biscuit breakfast. Try this simple recipe at home, then slather your homemade biscuits with butter and honey, and you'll be good to go.
