It's not too often you see those of us in the Raw Food business blog about a breakfast place called Eggtc...but this place is an exception!
First off, many of you know we are huge fans of fruit only before noon, and most mornings we do live by the sound of a blender making up our flavor of the day for our infamous green smoothie! However, we don't live in a cookie cutter world of a schedule of perfection (thank God), so, out of the 6 days a week my sister and I get together each morning to work, once a week Stace and I are on the move to search out a great breakfast spot to have our weekly business talk where we can actually find something to eat other than eggs, bacon, and fried potatoes! Don't get us wrong, this place serves up that and much more of the most delicious foods on the Standard American Diet (so we see and hear) but find out as you read below why this place below is our favorite local breakfast hangout here in Kansas City now and why we both drive 35-40 minutes to get here!
Hands down, one simple reason, THE STAFF WHO ACCOMODATES OUR UNIQUE MEAT, EGG, AND CHEESE FREE REQUESTS! When most restaurant chefs, cooks, owners, and bartenders might find us a bit of a 'pain in the neck', Eggtc makes us feel like the norm! So, on this one day of every week instead of having our one cooked meal in the evening hours as usual, we joyously get to indulge in an all veggie wrap. You say well how unique is that? Here's what ya gotta understand, this place serves divine food, and when you first order up and you place the order and we then follow up with "No thank you on the eggs, and then they ask what type of cheese would you like, and we say "Oh no thank you on the cheese, and then "fried potaoes or fruit?" and we say "Oh no thank you on the potatoes or the fruit" - we just visualize what they must be thinking...like I hope I never get these two in my section again! But quite the contrary, when we walk in Roxanne (the top waitress in KC, if you ask our opinion) has requested we sit in her section....(Here I am with Roxanne, who we have become friends with through the restaurant.)
Not to mention Urbano our favorite cook, Julie, who serves us when we sit up at the breakfast bar and then the owner that brings this magic for us all together, Eyad!

Thank you everyone at Eggtc that makes our meat free, egg free, and cheese free journey a whole lot smoother! You've got to give this place a try, located on 51st and Main in Kansas City Missouri, right in between Brookside and the Plaza- and Oh yeah, ask for Roxanne (if you choose to sit at a table or Julie at the breakfast bar and say you want what the twins have, might take them a second to refresh their memory, but in moments (if you choose to eat a cooked meal) you will be eating the most delicious gently cooked avocado, spinach, tomato, onion, sometimes asparagus mixture (olives for Stace) with a side of this tasty salsa all prepared by the happy and accomodating chefs!
Happy eating~
Love Susan and Stacey!
