Time for an egg-cellent brunch!

A key ingredient for countless savory or sweet recipes, eggs are the absolute star of brunch and the delicious suggestions that follow promise to satisfy even the most demanding egg lovers.

Omelet or scrambled eggs?

Eggs are like the "white canvas" of cooking, on which you can "paint" the most... delicious works of art - commonly, omelets! At Plaisir you will enjoy traditional Kayana – an omelet with a Greek flavor, made with fresh eggs, tomato sauce, feta cheese and caramelized onions that is served with a sesame bun. At Hot Pot, the eponymous omelet is full of protein, as it is prepared with onion, bacon, gouda cheese and mushrooms. Now, if you're a fan of scrambled eggs, then Evans awaits you with Salmon Scrambled Eggs – scrambled eggs with smoked salmon, black sesame and chives served on a brioche lobster bun.

Poached please!

If you have attempted to cook poached eggs, you have probably found out that it is quite a demanding recipe, with low success rates! However difficult they may be, poached eggs are delicious and low in calories, as they are cooked without a trace of fat, such as olive oil or butter. Rightfully so, they star in many classic brunch dishes. Eggs Benedict – originally popular in New York – are an all-time classic brunch option and at ToThelo gastrobar they're served with ham, Parmesan cheese and, of course, hollandaise sauce. Another popular brunch dish is avocado toast, and The Prince Barsserie enhances the classic recipe – sourdough bread, avocado and poached eggs – with crispy bacon and grated cheddar cheese. A delicious brunch story that combines Greek and Italian gastronomy, unfolds at Stories, which serves poached eggs on crispy focaccia with a mix of mushrooms, Gruyere cheese and baby spinach.

Sweet or homemade delights

Of course, eggs are also essential for creating countless sweet recipes – from cakes and buns, to pancakes, crepes and waffles. So, to satisfy your sweet tooth, visit Dada's House and indulge in the delicious pancakes with white chocolate, praline and forest fruits.
