In the issue that hits newsstands today, Bon Appétit magazine recognizes great American bar snacks.
Among them is a flatbread at B&O American Brasserie. It's made with arugula, asparagus and fried eggs.
I've never had it, and I'll confess that the fried-egg aspect strikes me as a bit odd. (So much so that I considered using it as the jumping-off point for a Top Ten Strange Uses for Eggs list. But then there was there was the matter of coming up with the other nine.)
In any case, a colleague who's had the flatbread assures me it's delicious.
She did question whether it was still on the menu. I looked at the menu online and saw only one flatbread that includes an egg, but that one is combined with spiced sweet potato, kale and truffle cheese -- not asparagus.
I wondered if the vegetables change seasonally, which would make sense at a place like B&O, which bills itself as a locavore restaurant. But when I called B&O just now, I was told the asparagus version is still available.
The recipe for the flatbread can be had at bonappetit.com. You can also see a slideshow of the other snacks.
