Epicurean Kentuckian: Blackaby Burrito Brunch at FM2

Rating on today's scale: Over the top; so good it had to be eaten before finding quick draw cell phone camera. That's how good . . .

By Ed & Linda Waggener

If you're hungry for brunch and in no mood to cook this Saturday morning, this news will be relevant.

We try to sample all the food booths at Farmers Market on the Square from Saturday to Saturday during the season and today's was another one to recommend.

We enjoyed breakfast burritos cooked to order at Blackaby Hill Farm's booth. A warm tortilla filled with their own brand of sausage, eggs, cheese and vegetables was over the top. With coffee from the Hungry Kids Cafe and many friends passing by to chat, it was a meal to recommend.
