On
a fairly miserable morning after a night of (much appreciated) rain, we ventured out to Mouille
Point to Newport Deli to try their breakfasts.
We did not realise that they keep a kosher menu so were a little bit
disappointed to discover no bacon but turkey macon, something we avoid. We are
not fans of pretend food and miss the fat on the bacon!
We were directed to an inside table. Lynne had tried to make an on-line
reservation and to phone them, but neither worked. Luckily, they were not full
The essential black coffee on arrival
The menu
They do a good Shakshuka , which is what our
vegetarian friends come for - spicy Tomatoes and peppers with eggs, an Israeli
or north African speciality. There are
only a few hot breakfast options on the menu: Poached eggs with bread, Scrambled eggs with
bread or on a croissant (which we both
went for), Croissant French toast, Hot Oats and the Shakshuka. Everything else is extra: Cheese R 15, Grilled Tomato R8, Turkey Macon 22, Spinach
R15, Avo R20, Feta R20, Salmon
R65, Banting Bread Add R 10.
There are lots of healthy cold options
The scrambled eggs are cooked without butter (we
assume not kosher) and were rather disappointing and thin, rather than
creamy. Neither is the croissant served
with butter and we must assume not made with butter either?
The hot oats are served with baked apple, sweet
dukkah and honey
