Eggs Benedict, one of the world's most favourite brunch perennials, gets five epic makeovers at some of Mumbai's all-day, casual diners

Mumbai Food: City restaurants give the Eggs Benedict a makeover

Egg Benedict Grilled Spinach Crab Meat Hollandaise Sauce
Egg Benedict Grilled Spinach Crab Meat Hollandaise Sauce


For a marine spin
For the most part, this riff on the traditional brunch staple looks like the real deal. But one bite into it and it reveals its pescatarian underpinnings. Here, the subtle flavours of crab meat topped with sauteed spinach meld with the unctuousness of perfectly cooked soft poached eggs along with a not-so-classic Hollandaise sauce to which a hint of spice is added to tempt the Indian palate.
AT: Silver Beach Cafe, Jaldarshan Building, Gandhi Gram Road, Juhu.
CALL: 26208930, 9819966495
COST: Rs 145


For Thai curry cravings
Called the House Benedict, this truly multi-regional iteration is served on a French brioche base topped with arugula leaves, Italian chicken mortadella, poached eggs and a green curry Hollandaise sauce that's made from Thai green curry paste and lime juice.
AT: Craft, Level 1 Phoenix Marketcity Kurla, LBS Marg.
CALL: 61802073/74
COST: Rs 295


Hen Benepict

For the die-hard Mumbaikar
Paying homage to Henpecked's farm to table concept, Hen Benepict is more than just a play on words, and an attempt at recreating the classic dish with local ingredients and preparation styles. So, while you have the traditional English muffin replaced with Mumbai-style laadi pav, potato salli is introduced to add a crunchy texture to the poached eggs that come enrobed with the typical Hollandaise sauce.
AT: Henpecked, 105, Apollo Street, Kala Ghoda, Fort.
CALL: 65550303
COST: Rs 295

The All Good Benedict
The All Good Benedict

For the carb-conscious
A healthier spin to the traditional Benedict, this version, called The All Good Benedict, swaps the muffin for vitamin and potassium rich sweet potato. Served on these sweet potato cakes are dehydrated tomatoes and desi poached eggs. The dairy-free cashew cream brings in a creamy texture, while the turmeric not only increases the antioxidant content of the dish but also adds that yellow Hollandaise-y colour.
AT: 212 All Good, ground floor Grand Galleria, High Street Phoenix, Lower Parel.
CALL: 62216020
COST: Rs 295

Cafe Zoe Eggs Benedict
Cafe Zoe Eggs Benedict

For the pulled pork fan
While still packed with porky goodness, the Cafe Zoe Eggs Benedict eschews ham in favour of pulled pork that sits atop two pieces of English muffin, topped with two perfectly poached eggs, Hollandaise sauce and a sprinkling of chives. They also do an Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon for seafood lovers.
AT: Cafe Zoe, Mathuradas Mills Compound, NM Joshi Marg, Lower Parel.
CALL: 24902065
COST: Rs 350
