Serious Biscuit

On my last day in Seattle, we took a stop by Serious Biscuit. The restaurant is actually "two" restaurants: Serious Biscuit for brunch and Serious Pie for dinner.

There was quite a bit of wait, so we browsed the in-store wine selection. There were quite a few local Washington varieties and I would have gladly tried if I wasn't flying out.

When we finally got seated upstairs, we realized we could overlook the workfloor below where there was a rush of people prepping doughs and pastries! It was fun to watch as we waited for our food.

The wood fire skillet baked eggs with fried chicken, bacon, and kale. It's a rich breakfast skillet mish mashed all together and paired with biscuits on the side. And those biscuits were amazing! Buttery, flaky, and rich - its no wonder their biscuit is their namesake.

And this was the fried chicken buttermilk sandwich - essentially just fried chicken, biscuits, and tons of gravy. The chicken and gravy were just ok on their own, while the biscuit was great. Despite its name as having tabasco black pepper gravy, it didn't really taste spicy to me.

Note that four of us got the above two dishes, and we were more than satiated. Those buttery biscuits and heavy gravy packs a punch!

FT got the root beer, which came in a little mason jar. (Strange brunch fare, but to each their hangover cure.)

I got my morning lifeline aka coffee, which Serious Biscuit proudly advertised as Starbucks. Ah, Seattle.

AK was brave and got the bloody mary, which was quite nice and spicy here!

Alas, I was fooled by the name of "Serious Pie", for when we asked for a slice of pie, we were told there was none and that it was seasonal dessert. Seasonal? But isn't this also a pie shop?... And that was when I found out the pie was for pizza pie. Oops.

Serious biscuit lives up to its name and has seriously delicious biscuits, but while delicious, the other things we had were too heavy for my taste, though granted we did order all things that have fried chicken. Definitely bring an empty stomach or a friend to share - even though the portions look small, they're really filling.
