Egg, Chorizo, Muenster, Telera
“The sandwiches are fresh and filling, and the addition of an ingredient like chorizo makes them stand out from the usual breakfast items like bacon and sausage,” Karen Kourkoulis, chef/manager at the Passport Café in the Carole Weinstein International Center at the University of Richmond, in Virginia, says. “The best way to entice diners to try something new is to simply talk to them, explain a certain ingredient or give a little history of where a certain dish originated.”
