O'yo Sint-Baafs — Restaurant in Ghent

Having left London at 6 am ( getting up at 4) I was quite hungry and delighted at the possibility of the advertised healthy food. I ordered cappuccino with plant milk ( lovely) and an apple based breakfast. The place was quiet. I got my coffee. I finished my coffee. The apple breakfast is nowhere in sight. After 15 minutes ( I presume this is mostly pre-made ) I ask for my breakfast. It will be coming any minute, I’m sure, the waitress says. She doesn’t seem to recognise me and I have to repeat the order. I give it another 10 minutes and go up again. Again she looks at me, inquiring as if asking what can I possibly need. I remind her. She looks like this is maybe something she’s heard before. She takes a walk to the kitchen and returns with something that looks like a chia pudding in plastic. “ it’s been in the kitchen all along” she says triumphantly; as if that would make her service better. I say I don’t want it if it’s been sitting on the kitchen counter, refund me. I have no intention of eating here. In bc all honesty, I’m just too miffed. She gives me 10€ add tells me to leave. They seemed very short staffed, for August in a tourist spot. But is that my problem?

So nice place,...

This is the 3th time I came to an O'yo's, and first time on this location. Previously,on the other location, I ordered the belly dancer toast, which costs a bit too much for what it is, but is still nice. Today I had the chocolat, peanutbutter, banana pancakes and I would definitely not recommend. They were so hard, I couldn't even eat them (without breaking my teeth)... I had a few bites that were a bit softer (but still very hard and dry) and the taste wasn't good either... I'm not someone who ever send food back, but I really thought about doing that and if anyone would have asked if I liked it, I would have for sure told them no, cause saying yes is too...

You had to order by QR which is a hassle, waitresses were nice. I must have ordered the wrong things when looking at the other comments. The salty bowl with goat cheese and guacamole was ok initially, but there was too much quinoa, it was flavorless, and by the end I did not want to eat it any more. The kimchi was mediocre and overpriced, for 3 € I would have expected a lot more, The absolute low was the coffee, if you can even call it that. I had the beetroot 'coffee', which tasted like a beetroot stew. There was no smell of coffee, and the cinnamon that was mentioned in the menu was tasteless. Or not there. Overall disappointing...
