5 Big, Bad and Beautiful Breakfast Sandwiches

2018-04-17 Austin Kit ShanghaiWOWeng

We’ve all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I, for one, have never been into eating right away in the morning which makes brunch the perfect meal! As a kid, we would often have typical breakfast foods for dinner, so I find it acceptable to eat breakfast at any time of the day. Gone are the days where we had to scour the city looking for a decent breakfast sandwich. Today, search no more - here is a list of some of my favorites!


QV


Frittata Sandwich


Sometimes the only thing that will get you out of bed on the weekends is your brunch reservation. QV is bringing us a whole menu full of yummy brunch options to choose from. Whether it’s 2 dishes for RMB 98 or 3 dishes for RMB 138, we’re going to leave that part up to you! And if that’s not enough, there’s the option to add one dish for RMB 38. I highly recommend the Frittata sandwich as one of your choices. It is only offered with the brunch menu, so get it while you can. This tower of fluffy egg, parmesan cheese, pancetta, crisp asparagus and citrus mayo is incredibly satisfying.  Wash it down with a Bloody Mary for RM55.

RAC


Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich


Breakfast in a Bun


RAC coffee has made quite an impression. The crowds of patrons waiting outside in the courtyard vying for a seat might put you off, but once you’ve tried their food, you’ll understand why. This is a breakfast lover’s paradise. One of my favorites is the Breakfast in a Bun: scrambled eggs and chive, cheddar, onion jam and chili mayo on a perfectly grilled bun... I can’t wait until we meet again for another delectable experience! If you’re looking for something equally delicious but a bit more simplistic, go for the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich. Crispy smoked bacon, fried egg, gooey cheddar cheese and house tomato sauce is exactly what you need. You can also add a side salad to your meal for RMB 10 in case you’re feeling the guilt, or go big and add any of the following toppings for RMB 15: cheddar, avocado and/or smoked bacon.


Bodega Sandy

Diner


Egg Sandy with Sausage

 

Special Menu McGriddle

 

Diner is the home of judgment-free indulgence. Their best seller is the Egg Sandy, a flavorful sausage patty piled-high with a fluffy, folded egg, cheese, arugula, freshly sliced tomato and a side of sweet chunky tomato jam all on a brioche bun. If you’re in a rush, the Bodega Sandy is the way to go; a classic bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich made right and ready for takeaway! The crispiness of the bacon paired with the runny egg is heaven. If you’re feeling like a glutton, our advice is to go for the secret menu. Americans…prepare yourselves. Diner has a variation of the American favorite McDonald’s McGriddle. Relish in the artery-clogging majesty of two perfect pancakes filled with sausage, egg and cheese. While the pancakes are not injected with tiny pockets of maple syrup, it is served on the side for your dipping pleasure. It’s worth the extra workout sessions...Trust me.

Spread the Bagel

 

Bacon, Egg & Cheddar Bagel

 

Spread the Bagel has been a local favorite for years, and one of the first places in Shanghai to have a breakfast sandwich. The Mr. Grumpingsky saved my life on several mornings after a long night out.  While that particular sandwich is no longer available, you still have several options to choose from. The Bagelwich Set can be ordered with bacon or ham along with a coffee for (RMB 55) on your choice of bagel. The winner is the Egg & Cheese Brekkie Bagelwich with a fried egg, cheddar & pepper sriracha mayo on an everything bagel (RMB 30). Everything’s better on a bagel.
