The Best Eggs Dishes to Try in The Triangle



The North Carolina Egg Association (NCEA) has a summer campaign to support local, independent restaurants throughout the state after a tough past year. The organization will ask North Carolinians to nominate their favorite restaurant that serves eggs in one the state’s three regions (Coast, Piedmont or Mountains) to win a $1,000 prize to help rebuild or make needed updates, bring back employees, or support employees who have experienced financial losses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The nomination page will be live through Aug. 8.


I’ve partnered with NCEA to showcase a few of the best egg dishes in NC! I visited three restaurants in the Triangle this summer and I'm nominating the three because of their a delicious dishes with eggs. The restaurant with the most votes will win a cash prize of $1000. I hope my nominations win! (I'm a little bias haha). See my nominations below:
