Brunch at Podmore

Bloody Mary - a brunch staple 
(podmore bloody mary mix, reyka vodka, house-made pickles)

After my first visit to Podmore for cocktails, I was very eager to return to the beautiful restaurant for brunch. The brunch menu offers sweet and savory dishes with a European influence. For instance, my friend had their Full English Breakfast which I am confident you cannot order anywhere else on the island. The traditional breakfast includes fried eggs, bacon, pono pork sausage, black pudding, potatoes, mushroom, baked beans, tomato, and fried bread. It's huge so bring your appetite.

I ordered the Pumpkin Bake -  kabocha squash, spicy chorizo, kale, pickled red peppers, and sous vide eggs. I really enjoyed the spicy kick of the chorizo and the texture of the pumpkin. I would definitely order this dish again.

The dish that had the most oohs and ahhs was the “Christmas Breakfast” potato rösti, spinach, house-smoked salmon, double yolk coddled egg, and brown butter hollandaise. Best news is that it's just not for Christmas and will stay on the menu year round.

Another delicious dish was the Beer-Battered Crispy Egg - mushroom ragout, blue cheese, grilled Breadshop bread, and pickles. We each really enjoyed our savory dishes and for dessert shared the two sweet dishes on the menu: the Raised Waffle (white chocolate cheesecake, dark chocolate sauce) and the Italian Toast (panettone, custard, vanilla crème mousseline).
