Eggslut, Notting Hill
Eggslut, LA’s comfort food chain restaurant that puts eggs centre stage, gets its first UK outlet on Notting Hill’s Portobello Road
LA's Eggslut opens in Notting Hill
The first UK branch of LA’s problematically-named yet serially-followed Eggslut opens in London this summer. The mini chain harbours a niche in the fast food scene, making eggs the star of every dish on the menu.
Founded in 2011, Eggslut’s LA offering has since been joined by four sister restaurants across California and one international branch in the Lebanese capital of Beirut. The UK opening marks the restaurant group’s first in Europe. Eggslut’s London branch can be found on Notting Hill’s Portobello Road, but the restaurant previewed its egg-led wares at foodie festival Taste of London back in June.
The egg-centric menu features a selection of egg-filled brioche rolls and specials, such as the the wince-worthingly named ‘Slut’: cage-free coddled egg on top of a smooth potato purée, poached in a glass jar, topped with grey salt and chives, served with slices of baguette.
Other popular items on the menu include the Fairfax: cage-free soft scrambled eggs and chives, cheddar cheese, caramelised onions and sriracha mayo served in a warm brioche bun; and the Gaucho: seared wagyu tri-tip steak, cage-free over medium egg, chimichurri, red onions and rocket, served in a warm brioche bun. Those who arrive for breakfast, meanwhile, might want to keep things traditional by ordering the simply named ‘Bacon, egg and cheese’: hardwood smoked bacon, cage-free over medium egg, cheddar cheese and chipotle ketchup, which also comes in a warm brioche bun.
