ONE MORE FOR THE ARCHIVE
Kimchi Egg Sando + Arabiki Sausage
from Dopa by Devon
egg omelette, kimchi, furikake, shallots & mayo, with added arabiki sausage on fresh bread
Did you know Dopa now has a breakfast menu? It’s only available on weekdays until 11 AM, and you can only get it at their shiny new Victoria Cross location. Since I’m off today running errands, I figured I’d drop by (normally, you wouldn’t catch me in that area on a weekday). With the new metro right outside my door, it was super fast and easy to get there. Woo hoo!
Now, onto the sando. The menu gives you options: just egg, egg with kimchi, or egg with sausage. But because I couldn’t decide, I went all in and added extra toppings. In hindsight, maybe not the best move, lol. I reckon it would’ve been better with just two fillings. Still, the egg omelette was fluffy, the arabiki sausage had that nice smoky flavour, and the bread was soft and springy. The kimchi brought a nice tangy kick that cut through the richness of the egg and sausage, while the furikake added a subtle savoury boost that tied it all together. The bread did a great job absorbing all those flavours from the fillings. If I had a redo, I’d probably go with the arabiki and egg combo. And while it didn’t look too big at first, it ended up being a pretty hearty brekkie!
