Wild Eggs Will Open Second Store in Westport Village

November 6th, 2008 by rick · 1 Comment

Owners J.D. Rothberg and Shane Hall have signed a lease to open a second location for their breakfast/lunch concept known as Wild Eggs at Westport Village this winter. The second location will have more than 4,800 square feet, an increase of approximately 700 square feet compared with the original restaurant on Dutchmans Lane.

The Swope Design Group will again create a bright, cheery atmosphere, and the Westport Village location will feature design favorites from the original, such as the egg wall, breakfast bar and “scrambled egg” floor. Some new features will include a patio dining area and a retail section in the waiting area.

Wild Eggs’ executive chef is J.J. Kingery and the menu at the new location will feature the same selection of breakfast and lunch items available at the Dutchmans Lane store. Omelets, scrambles, frittatas, pancakes, waffles, French toast, sandwiches and soups will be offered seven days a week. Selections will include popular items like the fresh vegetable “Farmers Market Skillet” and “Kalamity Katie’s Border Benedict” with green chili cheddar corn cakes, topped with chorizo, two poached eggs, queso fundido, pico de gallo, sour cream, green onion and fresh avocado. Wild Eggs also offers custom blended coffee at an espresso bar and mimosas will be made with fresh squeezed orange juice at the cocktail bar.

Wild Eggs will be hiring 45 new employees to staff the Westport Village location. Wild Eggs offers breakfast and lunch daily from 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on weekdays and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekends.  For more information on Wild Eggs call (502) 893-8005.

    We had a great time last weekend at Wild Eggs at the Westport Village location. Our waitress Kim was a treat. A great personality. The service was perfect. The food was great.

    JJ the chef came out to greet us and share his interest in hot peppers.

    We had just come back from the Machine Gun Shoot at Knob Creek and we were heading out of town. The breakfast at Wild Eggs was the perfect way to end the trip. Thanks guys.
