For my friends 21st we decided to have brunch somewhere to celebrate. After researching so many options we managed to narrow it down. We opted for Penylan Pantry in the end, just a stone's throw away from the city centre. We went pretty early arriving just before 10 and there were only a few tables left.
The front is very quirky with the door having a cute tinkling bell when you enter. An array of products for your purchase range from, bread, jams and chutneys just to name a few. They offer a selection of cakes and drinks also to tickle anyone's taste buds.
Once we had browsed the breakfast menu it was time to order. You can have a range of items from toast with egg, avocado and other toppings. What caught our eye was the breakfast bowls, meat and a vegetarian option are on available. When ordering they had run out of avocado, but it was not the end of the world as it was a lot of food.
While the food was being prepared we made our way through our first pot of tea. The milk jug was huge as well enough to fuel my milky tea tastebuds.
The food soon arrived, on the menu, there is a warning of 15 minutes for food waiting time in advance. To our surprise, one last avocado had been found so we got the whole shebang.
From the bottom up there were so many ingredients. Thick slabs of wholemeal toast rest at the bottom soaking in the taste of other foods. Button mushrooms, grilled tomato and smashed avocado gave you some of your five a day. Two beautifully cooked soft boil eggs, when cutting into them the yolk oozing out. The best till last is the mini disks of black pudding and the chorizo sausage. Each ingredient complementing each other, creating a taste explosion in your mouth.
Once we had finished we were stuffed, ready for a hard day's work. As it was surprisingly busy we thought we'd get up give someone a chance to have our table. Before leaving we had a nose at everything on offer and, a hidden corner meant there is more seating than originally thought. We will defiantly have to return in the future, to sample more delights.
