Elephant Grounds shares its own inventive take on the classic fried chicken and waffle combo with their Karaage Waffles (P 450) with crisp, deep-fried chicken karaage served with spicy aioli sauce, bacon gravy and signature housemade Belgian waffles drizzled with soy maple syrup. 

The playfully inventive east-west style transforms the sweet and savory breakfast staple with its contrasting notes of creamy, sweet and gentle heat with each bite. The chicken karaage is perfectly crisp and juicy pairing well with the Belgian waffles for a hearty breakfast at Elephant Grounds.

Delicately crisp and soft, the Belgian waffles dusted with powdered sugar is a comforting and nostalgic breakfast staple made even more sumptuous with the chicken karaage. The soy maple, spicy aioli sauce and bacon gravy completes the dish. Other waffle options at Elephant Grounds include the Strawberry Yuzu Waffle (P 350) and Bacon-Steak and Eggs Waffle (P 595).

Can there be anything more classic than an Eggs Ben for breakfast? At Elephant Grounds, this traditional all-time breakfast favorite is given a refreshed and luxurious spin with the Crab Croquette Eggs Benny (P 550). Imagine a crisp and golden blue crab patty on soft freshly baked English muffin topped with poached egg slathered in creamy Hollandaise sauce and sprinkled with paprika and furikake for that savory umami start your day.

The delicate briny sweetness of the blue crab punches through followed by the delectable crispness of the breading for a lavish new twist on the classic eggs benedict. The richness of the Hollandaise and poached egg gives the dish its elegantly smooth finish draping the palate with a lingering richness, kicked up by the subtle hints of smoky and savory sharpness from the paprika and furikake. Each bite brings contrasting notes and textures in a seamless and balanced play. 

This one's high on my list of personal picks at Elephant Grounds. Change up your eggs ben game with the novel and innovative Crab Croquette Eggs Benny by Elephant Grounds to start your day. Other Eggs Benny options include the more traditional Ham Eggs Benny (P 450) and Salmon Eggs Benny (P 510).

The crisp and soft brioche becomes the perfect base for the medley of fresh flavors from the fruits and ricotta for a light yet satisfying breakfast at Elephant Grounds.
