Brûlée Bircher

> Brulee bircher with strawberries, cranberries, super seeds mix, brulee yogurt + watermelon jerky <

The bircher is a seriously incredible creation. The brulee yogurt is out of this world! It is super sweet and the consistency is nicely whipped and not too thick. The fresh fruit is great to break down some strong sweet flavours in the dish and adds a bit of a sour element to the meal. The watermelon jerky sounded amazing so I was very excited to try that part of the meal. It was nice and chewy and the sweetness of it was a perfect touch to the dish to top it all off. If you’re a crème brulee fan, then this is 100% the dish for you because the flavours are identical!

Orange Blossom Hotcakes

> Orange blossom hotcakes with strawberries, pomegranates, vanilla bean mascarpone + raw fruit confetti <

The hotcakes, OMG, I was actually obsessed with how fluffy they were! The main reason I finished them was because they were so fluffy which worked really well with the orange flavour because that meant it would not be too overpowering or sickening. The fresh fruit really helped to add moisture to the dish and make it more pleasant to eat. The vanilla bean mascarpone was amazing! It melted into the hotcakes and gave it so much more flavour and character.

West Coast Salad

> West coast salad with quinoa, kale, red cabbage, sweet corn, pepitas, carrot, broccoli, walnuts, kidney beans + haloumi <

The west coast salad was also a very beautiful dish. I thought I would try something a little healthier and lighter so I could feel more energized and refreshed. All the elements are super healthy and make you feel rejuvenated and ready to take on the day. All the elements to this dish worked really well together, which made for a really nice and refreshing salad.

Overall, this café does have great unique dishes and if you’re into trying different and new things, then this is the place to put on your list to check out! The breakfastpiggy team Piggies out, Oink oink 🐷🐷
