all the way out here in the wilds of Indiana! There’ s also a“ healthy alternative” of egg whites and grilled tomato on wheat toast.
There’ s nothing like a stack of flapjacks first thing in the morning, and Heavenly Biscuit offers“ Marci’ s Pancakes,” two full-size buttermilk or a four-piece short stack.
Heavenly Biscuit serves a limited lunch menu with several great sandwiches— grilled cheese, grilled or fried chicken sandwich, homemade chicken salad, and a BLT.
Also on offer, a delicious half-pound Black Angus burger that is the basis of their“ Hangover Helper,” a big juicy burger topped with cheese, bacon, grilled onions, jalapenos and an over-easy egg. That is going to either cure you or send you back to your bed— one or the other.
They also offer a nice vegetarian soup of the day served in a bread bowl.
My biscuits and gravy arrive at the table, steaming hot and delicious. The first bite is, well, heavenly! At last, somebody who gets it right! Fluffy, fresh-baked, handmade biscuits covered with creamy, white, sausage laden gravy.
While my more refined partner lingered daintily over her sweet rolls and coffee, I pounced on the savory breakfast delight with vigor.
The business motto down at Heavenly Biscuit is“ A Lil’ Taste of Heaven” and, while none of us can be certain what awaits us in the great beyond, it seems likely that those of us who have been called according to the purpose will there know the supreme joy of perfectly-made biscuits and gravy. But why wait? After lapping up the blessed breakfast offering, I nibbled a bit on the pecan roll which was, if not heavenly, certainly divine.
I was starting to write a little bluegrass tune in the back of my head. I could almost hear the clawhammer banjo and the guitar line skittering along like a coon hound crossing a log. I could hear the thumping bass line and that high lonesome whine of three men singing in tight harmony;“ Will there be biscuits in heaven?“ Or will we only feast upon the Word?”“ I hope they have grandma’ s fried chicken,”“ That surely was a heavenly bird …” I finished my milk, drank my coffee, and soaked in the ambience. And I was profoundly satisfied. •
