If you’re looking for options other than biscuits, there are also classic breakfast plates, vegan dishes, and power bowls on the menu. "The Gravy Train" is your staple biscuits and gravy, with a tall, pillowly soft biscuit, smothered in thick, creamy, peppery, and sweet maple sausage gravy. It’s different than some others I have had through the years, but in a good “oh, I’ve never had something like this” kind of way. The biscuit was pillowy soft, the gravy thick, creamy, and peppery with a unique sweetness from the maple sausage. I tacked on an order of “The Gravy Train,” a tall buttermilk biscuit smothered in maple sausage gravy and chives. I could have eaten the whole thing, but I had to save room for the true test of any biscuit place worth its salt (and buttermilk). "The Flame Thrower" packs the heat, with a cheddar & jalapeño biscuit, fried chicken breast tossed in hot sauce, with white cheddar, spicy remoulade, candied bacon, and jalapenos. It was more of a big, brawny chicken sandwich than what you would typically think of as a biscuit. The biscuit itself is crispy on the outside, and super soft in the middle. The jalapenos and hot sauce are offset by the sweet and smokiness of the bacon and the pungent white cheddar. At first glance you may think it’s a little off-balanced, with a heavy lean towards heat and not much else, but that’s not the case.

Don’t be discouraged by the lines though, it moves quickly with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating space. Vicious Biscuit is located in The Forum in Wilmington, and when I visited on Friday afternoon, the place was packed with a lengthy line to get in the door. However my childhood favorite now has some serious competition about who makes the best biscuit. Growing up in West Virginia, Tudor’s Biscuit World reigns supreme in my mind when it comes to fast food biscuits. The restaurant gained fame in Charleston, South Carolina, and has since spread out across the Carolinas (and even to Florida). However one restaurant that has opened with a bang is the new breakfast & brunch spot, Vicious Biscuit. I try my best to jot down a new café or seafood joint, but Southeastern North Carolina’s explosive growth makes it a real chore.
