A trip to Hatay Sofrasi will leave you satisfied but already thinking about when you can arrange your next visit. Spend your morning with the tunes of Turkey and natural lighting at The Avenues.
If you’ve ever planned a trip to Turkey, part of your daily plans included indulging in their magnificent breakfast spreads, tea and coffee. You don’t need a trip to Turkey to enjoy delicious Turkish cuisine anymore, a trip to Hatay Sofrasi will take you straight there as you begin your day.
Part of the Souk at The Avenues, you can’t go wrong with choosing where to sit at Hatay Sofrasi. Either sit outside the restaurant and enjoy the hubbub of people walking past as you enjoy your breakfast or sit indoors and take in the beautiful interiors, lovely décor and open kitchen. We decided to sit outside the restaurant as the natural light in the morning made it hard to say no to! Either way, it’s the optimal way to start your day before embarking on your shopping adventure.
Once you’re seated, you’re greeted with a wonderful smile and a basket of hot Simit bread, which you can’t go wrong with as you journey through the delicious menu.
With everything on their breakfast menu looking extremely appetizing, we decided to start off our visit with the Turkish Village. This breakfast tray is the perfect way to get you started with portions of Turkish Labneh, olives, hummus, foul, and cream with honey all around a beautiful tray of assorted cheeses. Perfect for sharing, this is a great way to get your palette prepared for more delectable breakfast items.
You can’t visit Hatay Sofrasi for breakfast without ordering their must-have Menemen eggs, a traditional spicy Turkish dish inclusive of eggs, tomato and peppers. Let them know exactly how you like your eggs – we got it sunny side up! – and prepare yourself for a dish that will leave you wanting more. The oven-baked Pita bread is a wonderful companion to the Menemen eggs and you can choose your filling between Cheese, Sujuk or Labneh. Spoiler alert: They’re all absolutely delicious!
Have space for a little more? Well, make space for the Cheese Börek, a delicious filo pastry with cheese that left us all sitting back in our seats with a smile once the plate was cleaned off.
Now it’s time for the perfect ending: Turkish tea and coffee with baklava on the side. This will not only help you end your breakfast on a high note, it will also give you the energy you need to start your day shopping at The Avenues Mall.
