I don't know where to start with the food; everything was amazing! Let's start with the drinks. I ended up ordering the pistachio latte and fell in love. The flavor was intense and rich. Antipode did not skimp on any of the ingredients. I have not had a latte this good in ages. If you have a sweet tooth and love pistachios and cream, this latte is for you. 

Ingredients-Milk, coffee, pistachio syrup, pistachio cream, and crushed pistachios, the classic and popular Antipode coffee

The main dishes were all 10/10. Each dish was a burst of flavor. The Antipode Brunch menu is truly one of a kind. I enjoyed all of the items that we tried. The dishes that stuck out were the chakchouka, the Yuzu French toast, and the eggplant croquettes. 

The vegan shakouka was amazing; it was baked to perfection, and all the ingredients used were rich in taste and flavor. The fresh mint enhanced this dish and left me wanting more.

Chakchouka

Eggs cooked in a puree of tomatoes, red peppers, and onions. Feta cheese, homemade pita bread, olives, and hummus.

Yuzu French toast

Ingredients-Caramelized French toast served with seasonal fruits, poached pear, vanilla cream, and yuzu gel

The Yuzu French toast was a masterpiece, and the plating was one of a kind. This dessert was done beautifully. It stood out among all the dishes on the table and blew me away. The taste was incredible, and the pairing of poached pear vanilla ice cream and caramelized French toast was 10/10. This amazing dessert from Antipode is one of the best I have had in a long time. 

The caramelized walnuts and yuzu gel gave this dessert the perfect finish. I highly recommend this dessert, as it is a work of art and your tastebuds will love it. 

Folks I have nothing bad to say about Antipode. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit—the food, decor, and ambiance. The service was top-notch, and I cannot imagine any other restaurant to visit for brunch. Depending on what is ordered, be prepared to pay $20–40 per person for brunch, including a drink.
