Vegan Poached Egg With Runny Yolk Comes to SoCal Restaurants
There’s no need to worry about an egg shortage when companies like YoEgg are offering the same taste and experience without using chickens. The Israel-based start-up debuted its innovative vegan poached egg in the U.S. for the first time this week at six restaurants across Southern California.
Made out of chickpea and soy protein, YoEgg looks and tastes almost identical to one stolen from a chicken—even down to the runny yolk. However, it doesn’t support the egg industry’s cycle of abuse.
These eateries are serving the YoEgg:
Real Food Daily
Try it on the Spicy Ramen Bowl, the Avocado Toast, or the Eggs Benedict at both the West Hollywood and Pasadena locations.
Junkyard Dog
Real Food Daily’s sister restaurant in Silver Lake is also serving it on the Avocado Toast and in a breakfast special Eggs Benedict, which comes with Tofurky ham. Find it on the breakfast menu on Thursdays and Fridays.
Swingers Diner
This classic diner on Beverly Boulevard in Los Angeles offers tons of vegan options on its menu, and now you can try YoEgg on many of its dishes, including Avocado Toast, the Quinoa and Eggs bowl, and the All American breakfast (which can be made completely vegan by ordering with vegan sausage and multigrain pancakes).
Flore Vegan
At Flore Vegan in Silver Lake, you can try YoEgg in three dishes: Poached in Purgatory Toast, the breakfast bowl, and eggs Benedict.
Vegan District Asian Eatery
Loma Linda’s Vegan District Asian Eatery is serving YoEgg as part of its Poached Egg Fried Rice and as an add-on to any dish.
Coyote Grill
Coyote Grill’s menu was already vegan-friendly, but now the Laguna Beach eatery is stepping it up by offering YoEgg as an option on its Eggs Benedict, Huevos Rancheros, and Chilaquiles. (Check with the restaurant to make sure items can be made without animal-derived ingredients.)
Vegan eggs come in many varieties and are quickly popping up on menus at both vegan and nonvegan establishments. When you choose options like YoEgg, you make a difference in the lives of some of the most abused animals on the planet. Learn more about going vegan by ordering a free vegan starter kit today:
