Tasting Table recently named the best breakfast sandwiches in the country, and a Georgia restaurant was featured. "Across the country, the morning staple takes many forms, from Middle Eastern-inspired creations and McMuffin riffs to vegan alternatives and lox-filled bagels," they explain.

The perfect breakfast sandwich should follow three simple rules. It's quick, both to order and make. It's fresh (not a microwaves egg slab that is pulled out of plastic). Finally, it's a balanced hand-held item that is not too heavy, processed, or sugar-filled.

When trekking interstates and unfamiliar towns at sunrise, settling upon the quickest fast food chain is easy. Here, Tasting Table alerts you to establishments across that offer another option of this quick and easy, hand-held breakfast.

So, what is the best breakfast sandwich in Georgia, and where can it be found?

The "Egg Sammie" at Little Tart Bakeshop in Atlanta

To make this news even better, this Little Tart Bakeshop conveniently has three locations. They are; in Grant Park, Krog Street Market, and Summerhill. Furthermore, they have pop-up locations within various markets on the weekends. You can find more detailed information on that here.

"The modestly named Egg Sammie may not look or sound original, but every element of this deceptively simple feat shows an impressive level of craft," is how Tasting Table introduces this breakfast sandwich.

Little Tart Bakeshop calls the item "one of our best-sellers." It's easy to see what. This is souffled farm egg and Thomasville tomme (a raw cow's milk cheese) atop a warm, buttered, and homemade English muffin. If you really want to get your appetite going, you can take a peek at one of the best breakfast sandwiches in Georgia here.

Finally, it is necessary to give a shout-out to the Portland, Oregon establishment named by Tasting Table for the most clever restaurant and sandwich name. The "Yolko Ono" by Fried Egg I'm In Love.

Georgia Lake Named One of the Most Beautiful in America

America is known for many good things, from fast food to NFL football to land as far as the eye can see. It's also known for having lots and lots of beautiful lakes, including one Georgia lake.

With so many lakes across the United States, you're probably within driving distance of a fantastic lake of some sort. So, which lakes are the absolutely best in America? It's a tough question. I mean, everyone looks for something different in a lake. Some people love large lakes that look almost like the ocean, while other thrive at small, inland lakes where you can always see the shore. But, there are some lakes that stand above the rest when it comes to beauty and popularity.

I've put together a list of the "11 Most Beautiful Lakes in America," offering a little bit of something for everyone. These lakes are found all across America, so wherever you live, one of these probably is relatively close to you. We're heading into the perfect season to visit a lake, too. For those who aren't lucky enough to live near the ocean, going to a lake is the next best thing. One famous Georgia lake is included in here. So, get your sunscreen, hat, sunglasses and bikini or trunks and check out 11 beautiful lakes in America to visit.

11 Most Beautiful Lakes in America

I've put together a list of the 11 most beautiful lakes to visit in America. This tally includes lakes from coast to coast. Some fun activities, depending on the currents, include swimming, wind surfing, going on a boat on the lake, having a picnic at the shoreline and more. What's your favorite lake, and did I miss any? Reach out to me on social media and add to my list.

Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe

Seneca Lake, New York

Seneca Lake is the biggest of the 11 glacial Finger Lakes. It's 38 miles long and more than 618 feet deep, making it one of the deepest lakes in America. What's extra cool is that the U.S. Navy even does some testing for submarines in this lake, because of its depth.

Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming

If you've ever been to Yellowstone Park, you've probably visited Yellowstone Lake. The massive lake is a part of Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. It's actually the biggest lake in the park and one of the biggest highly elevated freshwater lakes in North America.

Lake Tahoe, California and Nevada

The famous Lake Tahoe is located right on the state line between California and Nevada. It's stunning, as it is surrounded by the glorious Sierra Nevada Mountains. This is the largest alpine lake in North America, making it a must-see lake.

Lake Santeetlah, North Carolina

Here's a special lake located within the Nantahala National Forest and surrounded by the Great Smoky Mountains. This is also a very pure lake, as its shoreline is mostly protected from development. It's a beautiful destination for fishing, jumping in a canoe or kayak or a picnic.

Hanging Lake, Colorado

Hanging Lake is so glorious. It's located in the middle of Glenwood Canyon in the White River National Forest, and it's actually part of the Southern Rocky Mountains. This lake "was formed by a geologic fault which caused the lake bed to drop away from the valley floor above," according to the USDA Forest Service, and is a designated National Natural Landmark.

Lake Superior, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan

The Great Lakes are, of course, some of the most famous lakes in the world. One that's often left of best-of lists is Lake Superior. It's the largest freshwater lake in the world and has a whopping 10% of the world's surface freshwater. Drink up.

Lake Michigan, Wisconsin/Michigan/Illinois

Lake Michigan is simply a landmark. It's actually the most deadly lake in America, due to the high volume of drownings. But, aside from the scary, it's a beautiful and large lake. The lake is spread over more than 307 miles, and there are many beach towns across those miles.

Lake Lanier, Georgia

Located in the northern part of Georgia, Lake Lanier runs nearly 40,000 acres. It stems from the construction of the Buford Dam. This lake is known for its super clear water. The water is actually crystal blue. How beautiful, right?

Lake Jocassee, South Carolina

Lake Jocassee is in the Appalachian Mountains, and it's actually a man-made reservoir. Its water flows from the mountains. This is another lake known for its very clear water, so you get to see all the fish and underwater creatures when you look down into the water flow.

Lake Okeechobee, Florida

Lake Okeechobee is the biggest freshwater lake in Florida. It's a very popular spot for largemouth bass fishing. Those who visit the lake get to learn the history and today's experience of the Seminole community at the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum, which is a bonus.

Lake Erie, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York

The Lake Erie shoreline touches Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and New York. The body of water offers some of the warmest waters you'll find in the Great Lakes. Lake Erie also offers some fantastic areas to swim, making it a popular vacation lake.
