Nick Wesemann, the pastry chef at The American, was a gracious host and prepared a delicious and inspiring breakfast. He prepared over-easy eggs fried on a bed of panko breadcrumbs cooked in butter. The technique created a delicate, buttery, toasty bottom under the eggs. Eggs on toast. The texture and flavors created were delicate and decadent.
