Love Nutrient The Edible Bean Sprout Cafe @ Masjid Kapitan Keling, Georgetown, Penang.

Specializing inwards the classic brunch items- Big Breakfast, Toasts as well as Pancakes; The Bean Sprout Cafe is ane of the latest members to bring together the clamoring cafe scene inwards Penang. It occupies ane of the lots correct contrary to the few century erstwhile Kuan Yin Temple along Masjid Kapitan Keling. Both outside as well as interior are rustic, it sure enough matches the heritage subject well. The contrast is obvious here- immature as well as passionate inwards an old-fashioned space; due east (building) meets due west (food); the cafe operators seem to pay neat attending to details here. The heat-intolerant mightiness hold upwards glad to know that there's a huge blower erected (though non air-conditioned), the cafe is non stuffed as well as the ventilation industrial plant fine. We did non experience stuffy at all, on a sultry hot afternoon. Albeit the cafe has a minor carte but sipping a loving cup of Joe as well as enjoying the Toast spell looking at the bustling temple-praying scene tin hold upwards ane of the neat ways to taste your off day. 



Avocado Toast three Ways (Rm 18.50)


Classic Pancakes (Rm 10)

Don't curl alongside sweetness breakfasts? Try their Avocado Toasts... a repast fit for a health conscious. It consists of three dissimilar types of toasts- Avocado-Cherry Tomatoes-Capsicum served on a toast spread alongside Avocado Mayonnaise (with Lemon Juice), Smoked Salmon as well as Scrambled Egg alongside Bacon... every bit good every bit a side of greens. We dearest the Avocado spread, the brilliantly used Lemon juice introduced a refreshing tang to the seemingly wearisome toast. The seasoning was location on, none of the Toast was over-seasoned or under-seasoned. The Scrambled Egg was slightly overcooked but it did non matter, the component was well-justified as well as commensurate alongside the price. The waiting fourth dimension was unusually longer but the hold off was worthwhile.

Those alongside a sweetness molar could become for their Classic Pancakes; a massive stack of Pancakes served alongside Honey as well as Butter. The Pancakes possessed the quintessential eggy-aroma but they may hold upwards a picayune likewise sparse for us. Moreover, the Honey was disappointingly conventional, Maple Syrup or something fancier is preferred. Also, nosotros idea that they could hold upwards to a greater extent than generous alongside the Butter. Maybe our expectations were high or simply their Avocado Toast outshined the Pancakes. We would prefer their Avocado Toasts over the Pancakes.
