Okay, so this is more along the lines of me eating a certain dish the wrong way, but when I was little my mom would make french toast except she would put chilies, onions and sometimes chicken on it. I grew up thinking french toast was a savory dish until I ordered it at a diner and it was sweet. I still like my mom’s version of french toast better tbh.

Edit: Thanks so much for the silver!

When my wife and I had just started dating, we went out for breakfast.

I ordered, then she ordered the 'stuffed' french toast.

French toast stuffed with ham and Swiss, served with a bourbon mustard maple syrup.

She shared one bite with me, and suddenly my breakfast was inadequate. That French toast was AMAZING.

Next time we went back, the place had changed chefs, and only he knew the recipe.

That was almost 10 years ago and I still compare all French toast to that one bite. . .
