Editor’s Note: Bacon Jam Restaurant has permanently closed.

I don’t know about you but I love starting my mornings with my bae – my bacon and eggs, that is.

If you’re also a fellow believer in the idea that life is always better with a bit of bacon, then we know of one restaurant that you fall in love with. So, avoid bacon your heart and pay a visit to this little family-owned diner.

Welcome to the wonderfully delicious Bacon Jam, located in the heart of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Enchantment Marketing/Youtube And, as the name suggests, this mom and pop shop serves up some amazing breakfast and lunch fare featuring our favorite ingredient: bacon.

You’ll find a wonderful combination of standard diner chow with some truly imaginative meals.

Try starting your meal off with an appetizer, such as The Defibrillator.

Opt for a serving of their Biscuit Tower, a delectable sandwich version of biscuits and gravy.
