We would love to indulge in some biscuits and gravy on our trip. We live in nyc and it is not easy to find.
Wondering where we might go to find some?
Our breakfasts now are mostly grab and go, resort (pop) or in park so we are open to lots of options.
 
Cape May has it on their breakfast menu. Have never eaten there though so no idea if good or not.
 

Boardwalk Bakery has this item on their menu as well. My first time going in here will be this Oct. so no comment on the quality or taste.
 
I'm from Tennessee and I've never had really good, authentic biscuits and gravy anywhere except A) my own kitchen (or a relatives), B) a privately owned restaurant. 99% of chains/big restaurants just don't do it right :( my husband and his family are from NY so I understand what you're saying. I made some for his parents recently when they visited and his mom was like, "wow. This tastes nothing like any of the biscuits and gravy I've had in restaurants" I wish you luck on your quest, maybe someone else can be of more assistance!
 
I haven't eaten it there (not a fan of gravy), but I know Olivia's at Old Key West serves it for breakfast. We've eaten there for breakfast and loved it!
 
My daughter really enjoyed the ones from Port Orleans Riverside!

Fellow NY'er here.

Biscuits are traditional breakfast bread in FL.

Even my plain $4 eggs came with a biscuit.

But try getting an egg sandwich on NYC round roll and you'll be disappointed.
 
Ok! I I don't expect them to be too amazing but good to know they are around. I've made them a few times but not often. I've never see the ny style egg and cheese on a roll outside of this area!
 
What is your recipe? I come from Canada and we don't have it. My sister enjoy biscuits and i want to surprise her.
 
OP, I remember teaching my brother in law to make white sausage gravy, he was confused :laughing: he likes to cook but had never made it because they don't have it many places up north. My husband and I have been together 6 years now and we come up to NY often; we may have biscuits and gravy down here, but I can't find a good bagel anywhere, I'm spoiled now...lol

I think you were asking the OP so I hope she posts hers as well, everyone makes biscuits and gravy a little differently in the south, but the basic recipe is: brown sausage in a skillet, use the fat (add a little butter if needed) and coat the sausage in flour, cook (stirring) for a couple minutes to get the raw flour taste out, slowly pour in whole milk a little at a time (I pour, stir, pour, stir, etc) until you get a nice thick consistency. I use lots of pepper in mine, some people like less, it's personal taste- and I use seasoning salt vs regular salt, but that is personal taste as well. Some people add hot sauce. Serve over warm biscuits :thumbsup2
 
I've heard of people adding cayenne, various vegetables, beef broth, using hot or sage sausage....ALLLLL kinds of ways to jazz it up, but I'm a purist, lol :rotfl:
 
I can't attest first hand, but my husband raved about the biscuits and gravy at Captain's Grille when we had breakfast there two years ago.
