From breakfast to bunny chow
A new Morningside café delivers a varied all-day breakfast, while Elangeni Maharani Hotel puts a Durban spin on the morning buffet with mini bunny chows and Magnum-topped croissants.
The Glass Guy and reporter decided to try the new Poppyseed Co, a female-owned and family-oriented restaurant located in Durban. Opened in an old Berea house, the restaurant offers a pleasant atmosphere with a verandah and coffee station. Their waitress warmly welcomed them and served a pleasant cappuccino. The menu offers various options for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and kids' meals.
They tried the Breakfast Plate, which included eggs, lamb sausage, creamy potatoes, mushrooms, tomatoes, avocado, and curried beans. Another option was the masala steak with eggs and chips. They also enjoyed a mushroom omelette with garlic butter and mozzarella. The Glass Guy had South African shakshuka for breakfast. The Brunch menu featured salads, light meals, and a Dubai French Toast that included pistachio cream and kunafa.
Despite the kunafa being minimal, the dessert was still enjoyable. They also had a cappuccino before heading back to the office. The reporter recently tried the breakfast bunny chow at Elangeni Maharani Hotel, which featured mini loaves stuffed with various fillings like scrambled eggs, bacon, and boerewors hash. They found the concept fun and enjoyed the messy eating experience.
