As breakfast and brunch are rapidly becoming the most popular meals of the day, The Balcon, based in the Sofitel London St James, is launching a new breakfast menu.
A series of egg dishes are all made with high welfare Clarence Court eggs and include Akuri (delicately spiced scrambled eggs) with Grilled Avocado & Homemade Butter Bun, and Poached Lobster & Caviar Omelette served with a potato hash and flecked with 22 carat gold leaf.
Further options are Crushed Avocado with Cornish Crab, pink grapefruit & streaky bacon on sourdough, and Corn & Halloumi Friters, avocado & rocket (pictured), Chia Seed Porridge with coconut milk & caramelized banana, pistachio & hemp seeds, and Organic Oat Porridge with blueberries, pecan nuts & fresh figs.
The Balcon’s weekend brunch is served on Saturdays from 12-4pm and Sundays from 12.30 to 4.30pm, and includes a main dish and dessert from a wide selection, plus a basket of luxurious viennoiseries and free-flowing champagne or Bloody Marys from the Chase Bloody Mary bar.
The choices include Poached Lobster & Avocado Eggs Benedict, and Rare Breed Beef Burger with comte´ & onion jam, as well as traditional and vegetarian fry up options. Sweet dishes include Brioche French Toast with mixed berry compote & lemon curd, and Pistachio Waffle with strawberry salad & sauternes cream. A selection of small plates, sides and smoothies complete this quintessential brunch menu.
