Breakfast at Smoked Paprika
MENU
Drinks
We were in for a big meal so we needed to be properly caffeinated.
Also as an added treat they hada smoothie special on as a well which we devoured as well. Really nice flavor, and easy on the eyes 😊
Skinny Iced Latte & Iced Long Black
Raspberry Mango Frappe (weekly special)
What we ate:
Slow cooked tripe stew with wild mushrooms, pumpkin puree, confit garlic, sourdough, grilled haloumi, poached eggs, bearnaise sauce
Tripe was an interesting choice for breakfast. It may not be the choice for everyone, but I love it when we go out to Yum Cha. Also all that garlic… I was in heaven. Garlic, halloumi, and pumpkin puree.. I was in my happy place. Definitely can never have too much halloumi.
The unreleased special… scallops, fritters, and pumpkin puree…
All the good things in one dish. I couldn’t get over the number of scallops on this dish. The fritters were crispy and delicious, and the charcoal bearnaise sauce. A unique clash of flavors, and beautifully plated. Love it!
Blueberry waffle, mocha panna cotta, italian meringue, toasted hazelnut and biscuit crush, nutella, fresh berries
So many things I love on one plate. Coffee flavored dessert, with my favorite fruit as a waffle flavor. Seriously, this was an incredible breakfast. Plating was spot on, and the texture of the waffles were amazing. Yes, it was a very sweet dish… but that is just the way I like it.
Just wait til you see what I had for dessert, yes dessert at breakfast time ❤
Dessert:
Peanut Butter & Jelly Cheese Cake
He told me he had a surprise… but this literally took the cake.
My comfort food, served up as a dessert dish.
As an added bonus, CRUNCHY PEANUT BUTTER, the best kind of peanut butter.
Smooth, rich, thick and delicious. The sweet strawberry jam was perfect to cut through the cheesecake, and the biscuit crust was a nice light touch.
We rolled out of this venue.
Summary
Beautiful plating, matched with amazing flavor combinations, and really lovely service.
I’ve came here a few times, and every time consistent with the last.
Love making the trip out here 😊
