This cozy spot in Portland specializes in must-try egg sandwiches, delivering crispy bread and delicious flavors amidst a casual vibe.
"This food cart-turned-restaurant has been a Hawthorne mainstay for years, and with other locations in Pioneer Courthouse Square and the Prost food cart pod, these sandwiches show no signs of stopping. The Sriracha Mix-A-Lot — a fried egg with the choice of protein, avocado, Havarti, tomato, and sriracha — is a typical crowd-pleaser, as well as the classic Yolko Ono, a fried egg with house-made pesto and a sausage patty. Sandwiches can be made vegetarian or gluten-free, with tons of add-on options from hash browns to the shop’s Holy Aioli. Boozy standbys like mimosas are available, as well." - Zoe Baillargeon, Janey Wong, Rebecca Roland
"Fried Egg I’m In Love is a small business that Walk In helped with branding and design." - Janey Wong
"Fried Egg I’m In Love (awesome name) is a yellow food cart situated on Hawthorne Boulevard with an attached, covered picnic seating area. Egg sandwiches are their thing–made with local eggs from Willamette Egg Farms, served on sourdough bread from Portland French Bakery, with FEIIL’s secret spice blend (Magic Egg Dust—which you can buy at the cart or online). Every sandwich can be made vegetarian- and gluten-free. For the adults, there’s coffee from Stumptown—as well as mimosas, local beers, cider, and FEILL’s take on sangria."
"Jace Krause of starting his first Fried Egg I’m In Love food cart, hawking breakfast sandwiches with names like Yolko Ono. Now, eight years later, Krause owns a restaurant in Portland, along with two food carts." - Jonathan Walker
"Fried Egg I’m In Love is lauded for its gooey egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches, but the cheerfully yellow cafe busts out an equally impressive breakfast burrito. The ‘Rito Suave comes filled with an omelet sort of egg, cheddar, Aardvark aioli, and a choice of protein that includes veggie options like Soyrizo or a vegan patty, though the housemade sausage is a stand out. A few slices of avocado balances out the saltiness, and the whole thing handles well enough for a breakfast on the go." - Alex Frane
