As a Ube Pancake & Egg lover, @poppingyolkcafe got all I need!The potatos on the side is crunchy and flavorful. Service is friendly and they refilled our water multiple times and check in with us. It’s a cute brunch spot that has outdoor and indoor sitting, the outdoor has shades which is nice. 👉🏼We ordered - Ube pancake ( recommend - little mochi texture) - Crab cake benedict - Nashville hot chicken benedict ( recommend! )
Forget Sunday brunch, what about Friday brunch?! My schedule is all over the place, and I randomly had the day off. Mine as well make the most of it by starting off with a big meal! Parking: This spot is located in a busy plaza. Finding parking can be a bit difficult; especially on the weekends. Free parking lot. Ambiance/Environment: They have a medium sized space with indoor and outdoor seating. Great for groups of all sizes. Very clean and modern inside. Once you walk in, overlook the menu, order at the register, and seat yourself. The server will bring out your orders. Service: Shout out to May! The sweetest and most courteous worker! She was taking orders at the register, delivering orders to tables, and checking on each table afterwards. Food & drinks: 1) Avocado Benedict - poached egg, avocado, ham, English muffin, butter, & hollandaise sauce served with garden spring and country fried potatoes. The poached egg was satisfying to pop. The avocado and salad were fresh. There was also a generous amount of potatoes! Despite the ham being a bit greasy, I really enjoyed this dish! 2) Popping Yolk Burger - Angus beef, sunny side up egg, grilled mushroom, cheddar, honey mustard sauce, also served with garden spring and country fried potatoes. The salad was also fresh and generous amount of potatoes. The beef was cooked well, juicy, and lots of flavor! 3) Ube Pancakes - This is one of their new menu items! The Ube flavor came through! It was topped with coconut flakes and drizzled with Ube sauce. Sooo delicious! 4) Ube Coffee - I ordered this hot because I wanted a latte art hehe. The latte art was so cute. The Ube flavor was light while the coffee flavor was strong. 5) Egg Coffee - This comes iced only. The egg foam was thiccckkk. I personally thought it wasn’t overly sweet. Perfect amount of sweetness. Pricing: Yes, prices are high. But what brunch spot doesn’t have high prices nowadays? Portions were big enough to share or save for later. I’d say it’s worth it!
Orders were taken at the counter and brought to your table. I thought prices were a bit high, and might be a one time visit for me. But upon seeing the amount and tasting of the food, I knew I would be back to try more items on the menu. The Florentine Benedict was truly delicious with perfectly poached eggs. The potatoes had just the right crunch and seasonings. The Ube French Toast was worth every penny and more. The staff was friendly though a bit reserved. Overall, this is a great new place for Sunday or any day brunch.
Giving one star because for the price this place left me expecting much more. The seasoned potatoes were the best thing I must say… my kids ordered the half order of French toast and when I tell you the it was SATURATED in grease I mean drenched! When we cut the French toast up the bread was see through. My oldest son said it was very greasy and could feel the grease with every bite.. my baby loves French toast and he only ate less than one of the 3 slices..the berries were mushy and old.. NOT FRESH You can tell the quality is not here The omelette my mom ordered was good except all the 3 slices of avocado they charge $3.00 for were brown n rotten looking… Again the quality for the food provided is not here.. seems they care more to save money and serve old mushy fruits and veggies to customers. I was surprised because it got some Asian fusion vibes which I love and usually they are VERY HEALTHY. So idk why they would serve the customers this?? Very disappointed and I don’t recommend you coming here u less you want to order a salad or maybe the breakfast sandwich..and the seasoned potatoes. That’s it. HONESTLY THEY NEED TO GET TIPS FROM LIKE Egg tuck because this is not it. Now I see why it was kind of empty.. 😔🥴
The Arugula Sandwich and the Matcha Latte were great. I appreciate how they have milk substitutes. I had my latte with Oat milk. The service was great. The facility was clean, even the restroom.
