KITSILANO MORNINGS || A Healthy Jumpstart to Your Day
How do you start your morning? We were fortunate enough to share our Sunday breakfast table with a few food enthusiasts in Vancouver at KAHVE - cafe by Enflux, for a media tasting of their new menu. Believe us when we say it was a treat!
John and Justine were their usual warm, welcoming selves, and filled the table with numerous plates of artfully plated food. From pecan chewies (this you MUST try), to their new carb-free lettuce boats, we left with a full stomach and plenty of beautiful photos.
Lettuce Boats in 4 savoury flavours - tuna, chicken, egg salad and shrimp.
1) Roast Chicken - marinated roast chicken, in-house pickled radish, carrot & celery topped with nasturtium garnish
2) Shrimp - marinated shrimp topped with sorel
3) Tuna - marinated tuna topped with apple julienne
4) Egg - organic free range egg salad with cherry tomato
Our favourite of the 4 new lettuce boat flavours was the egg salad - how they manage to make the egg salad supremely smooth remains a well-kept secret. The diced onions add a sweetness and kick to it and of course we can all appreciate a carb-free breakfast and/or lunch choice to keep our energy up throughout the day.

We've got our eyes on the pecan chewies - stacked high above the rest!
If you are visiting KAHVE for breakfast we highly recommend their London Fog latte and yogurt bowl. We loved the yogurt with honey and fresh fruits, and the care the staff dedicate into making each cup of coffee and latte is admirable. Order a pecan chewie to go for a mid-morning snack and return for lunch to try all 4 lettuce boat flavours - we promise you won't regret it!
Latte + chocolate chips cookies anyone?
