Opened in 2018, it prides itself in being ‘Adelaide’s most rule breaking, outspoken,  (and) fully vegan restaurant’.

Last week, it announced its new vegan breakfast meal by posting mouth drooling pictures of its gorgeous ‘Sunny-Daise Eggs Benedict’.

The dish includes a fried egg with the ‘egg white’ made from coconut and the ‘yolk’ made from pumpkin. Vegan bacon and Hollandaise sauce complete the dish.

The breakfast meal priced at $25 is so bewitchingly real that customers can’t stop raving about it.

“Okay, this kind of food might convince me to move to South Australia over staying in Victoria,” posted one woman. 

“So great to know there is such amazing vegan food in Adelaide!”

“Witchcraft – how?!” commented another.

“The egg looks so real – how did you do that?” asked a third.

Some were fooled into thinking that the cafe had started serving meat meals, however the cafe clarified the customers’ doubts in a Facebook post: “Yes, it’s vegan – we will never serve animal products,” said the cafe.
