the humble egg has always been an integral part of my family’s cuisines. no matter what meal of the day or what occasion, it’s there in one form in another. a quaint little cafe that celebrates the egg in london is egg break, based in notting hill. for £10 i had the sweet potato rosti with goats cheese, honey, pinenuts, dill yoghurt, and poached eggs. i love all the ingredients on this list, but the dish didn’t wow me as much as i was hoping for. the goats cheese slice is extremely thick and that dominates the flavours on the plate. my main disappointment was that the poached egg was less than stellar, the white was a bit all over the place which didn’t make for the most appetising execution/ appearance. the rosti itself is nice, i could have done with less of the kale bed and a touch more crispiness. good size for a brunch and the setting and staff are perfect for this time of the day.
