If there's one thing I'm addicted to, it's is brunch on Saturdays -- the food and day drinks that for some reason we don't feel guilty about afterwards. And what's better than a good hearty Bloody Mary to satisfy all your cravings on those sunny days (and after a Friday hangover of course)! Kissproof is by far the best place to be for brunch -- for the endless eggs options they offer, from an egg burger to sunny side up to poached on top of an avocado toast...
But it doesn't end here, for you may find some vegan and vegetarian options on the menu, and of course, if you're a meat eater, you'll order the bacon on top of everything as my friends do. Now, who wouldn't like a mimosa with all that? After all, what's a brunch without a bottomless mimosa, right? And a huge selection of beers, draught or bottled, local or others, you name it.
Kissproof is my go-to cafe/resto almost every week, for the funniest and professional bartenders that work there, the yummy food and the cool vibes.
