Asian Fusion? The only thing Asian is in the names of some dishes.
A few things i like are the healthy options like quinoa, egg whites, soy chorizo and very good home backed breads. Quality coffee's and tea's, fresh squeezed OJ, grapefruit and lemonade. Pesto egg white scramble, spinach and whole grain tortilla's. Heaps of black beans.
A few things i found lacking was a salad with breakfast (albeit a variety of garden greens). Come on, I eat a lot of health food to counter my moments of weakness and gluttony, but the salad does nothing, but detract from the great meals, it adds nothing to the overall taste of the dishes and they don't offer a variety of dressings (raspberry vinaigrette)
Things i didn't factor into this rating, but thought you all should know. My party of 3 had a long wait due to it being a Saturday morning and they have some12 2 person tables, 7 4 person and a few larger, but you'll wait much longer than if you had 2 people. It's small and outside(covered it can be cold), no parking lot (3 spaces). The fresh squeezed OJ is 8 oz and $3 dollars. I really wanted the french toast, pesto egg scramble and beef hash, but i went for the pesto scramble, 1 piece of french toast, herbed potatoes and avo slices. Many tofu options, but many vegetarian options.
I found the french toast good, but nothing special, good bread and tasty coconut, but i found the wash didn't have nutmeg and cinnamon they way I'm used to, very little complexity. the syrup bottles poured painfully slow. Glad i only got 1 piece. The avo really was fresh, but the herbed potatoes i thought overdone and they may have used fresh herbs for plating and garnish, but i sure didn't taste them in the eating.
You want real Asian fusion breakfast go to Orange County's Break of Dawn Cafe. Their are much better breakfast/brunch places, but i truly like the...
Read moreBest breakfast I’ve had in awhile. It was so good, I came back the next morning for more!
I stumbled across this place thanks to Google. I needed somewhere to grab a quick bite that was near my hotel. I was over the moon with this place once I opened the menu. So many incredible, fresh & delicious options to choose from.
I went with a fresh glass of pomegranate juice, the Yin & Yang and added an over medium egg. When I tell you I took the first bite and couldn’t stop eating until it was gone, I’m not kidding you. Every bite was a little different from the last, but equally as tasty. All the ingredients tasted so fresh. This bowl was a great value for the cost because it was extremely filling. I would suggest splitting it with someone & then maybe getting a pancake to split as well.
You can’t beat the views, you’re right on the water and can smell the salt in the air. Parking wasn’t too bad on a Thursday morning. But you might have to park a little ways away on the weekend. When I went there wasn’t a wait, however, the restaurant is very small so you could potentially encounter a wait on a busier day of the week.
It’s located directly across from a little seaside park, so if you do encounter a wait..there are worse...
Read moreThis is the perfect little breakfast spot! Right next to a beautiful beach and park area, It is nestled in like a little treasure spot. Very quaint and unique menu. Everything we had it was absolutely delicious. Very dog friendly...which is a big plus for me! In fact, they have a dog menu! Steak and eggs, chicken and eggs and a few other assortments to put some food in your pup's belly. The coffee was delicious and our server, Riley was just as nice and welcoming as she could possibly be. The way she treated us, you would think that she owned the place. She was fantastic! The blueberry pancakes were some of the best I've ever had. They used fresh blueberries and folded them in perfectly. They made the perfect scrambled eggs and the ideal crispiness to the bacon. We also had the burrito which was the perfect size for a breakfast bite. Rosemary potatoes and black beans accompanied the burrito and it was fantastic. They have some indoor seating and patio seating and I highly recommend the patio. Watching people pass by with their surfboards heading to the beach and people walking their dogs in the neighborhood. It's such a great neighborhood place. Every time we're in the area we will make sure...
