Tangobaby, I was just going to ask what Turkish toast was myself, so you’re not alone.

Eggs Benedict is an old favorite of mine. Yum!

Hi Penang Tua Pui,
Haha, you’re funny. I always make the mistake of reading food blogs late at night too ;)

Hi Kevin,
Me too – I love scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and lots of black pepper!

Those both look like excellent breakfasts. I will have to remember to add some smoked salmon to my eggs benedict the next time I make them.

Hi Deborah,
It was really nice – I have to admit I’m terrible at poaching eggs that’s why I always order them out!

Hi Noble Pig,
It sure was! :)

Hi Tigerfish,
You’re funny! Neither had I and was relishing it!

Hi Kylie,
Me too! I hope you’re better at poaching eggs than me, good luck.

Hi Tangobaby,
Don’t worry, you’re safe here ;)

Turkish bread is a type of long rectangular unleavened bread from Turkey but not completely flat like pita bread from Lebanon. It’s cooked in a wood fired oven and is about a quarter of the height of a regular loaf of bread and topped with sesame seeds. It’s very light inside with air pockets, kind of like the holes in swiss cheese.

It’s absolutely delicious sliced in half horizontally and toasted. I think the Point Cafe grilled the bread on a hot plate because it was perfectly brown all over and not burnt in places where the bread is thinner because of the air pockets – this often happens when you put it in the toaster.

Hope this helps you imagine it!

May I ask–what is Turkish toast? Please don’t laugh at me! I have never heard of that before.

My fav combination – salmon & eggs!
Looks gorgeous, will have to give the eggs benedict a go as I have not tried that yet.

This sounds like a wonderful breakfast place, and I can hardly wait to try to recreate the salmon eggs benny!
