I'm Loving It, Newport-Style

September 7, 2006 at 9:03 AM | by AVB | 0 Comments



A few years ago--and it pains us to admit this--we were a trifle obsessed with the McGriddle from McDonald's. We were only able to consume the product a single time--we blame our weak constitution and fear of fast food breakfasts--but the idea was enrapturing. Pancake dough with maple syrup as the bun for an egg or sausage McMuffin--you bet we were intrigued. It was quintessentially American--why not eat all different kinds of breakfast in a single sandwich?

As this photo from the menu at the Francis Malbone House proves, the McGriddle wields influence all over the country. The Malbone House--the estate dates to 1760--is a $400 a night B&B in Newport, Rhode Island. It was even cited by Gourmet Magazine as an "outstanding" example of the genre. Accolades or not, French toast stuffed with sausage sounds an awful lot like a McGriddle to us.
