Aptly named after the Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo, Cafe Frida is a colourful cafe serving up a very tasty breakfast in the kind of setting that makes you sigh and go, ‘ain’t life wonderful.’
With Frida pictures and quotes everywhere and staff that are always smiling, Cafe Frida emanates the kind of light and warm atmosphere that you want from a breakfast spot.
Besides Frida fever, their original breakfast creations are what attract the crowds
Their coffee game is strong while their all day breakfast (until 5pm) is what most turn up for.
At the top of the menu, you’ll find an organic claim to fame, meaning nothing gets in that kitchen that’s not quality ingredients.
Sweet tooths will be happy with the handful of French toast options and pancakes – all being a quality take on the dishes. There are also breakfast burgers (pita Diego – Frida’s famed fellow artist and lover – and pita Frida) and open sandwiches
We went for the staff recommendations and tried the “French Toasting Pikant” and the veggie version of the dish “Interessiert mich nicht die Bohne” (inspired by the German saying for I don’t care a stitch), which – as you may have guessed – involves a bowl of baked beans with eggs, etc.
Have you ever tried French Toast with bacon, rocket and maple syrup? Well, we hadn’t before Frida told us to.
From now on we will always do, what Frida says.
The sweetness of sirup covers the crispy bacon with a heavenly taste, before it’s the rocket’s that bring some fresh peppiness into the dish.
By the way, the drinks are as fancy as Lady Frida herself. You can have a hot ginger-lemonade or choose from the lovely tea selection with names like Lovely Morning, Lovely Break or Love is Green. The names say it all, don’t they, love?
