Though I do not, there are those who believe only certain items should be eaten in the morning. That list probably includes heavy meats cooked in oil, butter-laden or sugary breads, piles of potatoes and fruit as a garnish. I'm guessing asparagus is not on that list. Thankfully Sorci's Italian Café and Enoteca in downtown Sumner deviates from standard breakfast fare and serves a lovely classic Italian dish at breakfast featuring asparagus and eggs. A few lightly boiled spears are hit with olive oil and fragrant basil. Traditionally the eggs would be poached. Sorci's prepares them to order; I prefer mine over-medium. Freshly shaved Parmesan accents the entire dish, one that looks straight out of the pages of Food and Wine magazine.
