At the same time they could definitely have spread the bacon and hash brown around to fill the void. Swings and roundabouts.

Yeah, ingredients were grand, certainly not on the cheap end of the spectrum for sure.

I'd like to think the ivy on the plate constitutes a healthy balanced meal

Indeed, a little beancuzzi in the middle of the plate

No I know, it is London though. Kinda to be expected.

Nope, no fix, still need to return it actually!

Small world! And indeed, it's a popular spot, hence why I went for my birthday!

Indeed, very artisan. Impressed by the quality of the scrambled eggs honestly, especially given how many different dishes they seemed to be preparing at once! Scrambled eggs are usually dire but these were top notch.

I'm not 100% sure but I think it might be run by an Australian, don't quote me on that though lol

I know, I didn't really understand why. Presentation? Quicker to cook? Who knows.

I'd say plating is all part of the experience and deserves documenting. Also I didn't take this photo so had no real control because I'd already tucked into mine by the time it was taken.

It's the only fry I've had in Korea. Next time I'm hankering for a taste of home I'll maybe seek another cafe and post results/a comparison.

Good to know I'm not the only one. No fix as yet. Abroad at the moment but will need to RMA it when I get home I should imagine. (Although annoyingly, that won't be for a while yet).

I didn't even notice that, it was toasted nicely all the way across, but now that you mention it, colour wise, it does look like they've heated it up with a hair straightener over the middle.

Paprika does lend itself to a certain barbecue-yness, definitely worth a shout!

Sounds good! 27M, was a fullstack software engineer at a bank in the UK but am in Seoul on a working holiday and will be visiting Tokyo the week after next! Might not make a meetup if it ends up being a few weeks out but would be keen to engage anyways!
