About
If you’re searching for a charming, delicious brunch spot, look no further – Popping Yolk Cafe on Main Street is a haven for brunch lovers and breakfast enthusiasts alike.
This charming cafe offers an array of dishes from classic favorites like waffles and savory omelets to innovative creations. Their signature dish is the egg benedict; they offer unique variations with Nashville hot chicken, BBQ pulled pork, fish fillet, and crab cake.
Owner Jason Tsai moved to Southern California from Taiwan in the early 2000’s and opened a coffee shop, Fika Fika, in Arcadia in 2019, he told the Pasadena Weekly. Soon after, he opened his first Popping Yolk Cafe in Alhambra.
He opened a location in Hacienda Heights in 2020, followed by Pasadena in March 2022.
“I used to go to different brunch spots on the weekend,” Tsai told the Pasadena Weekly. “That’s how I feel about California: Everyone brings in their own culture of food to this community.”
The slogan for Popping Yolk Cafe? “Let there be brunch.”
They also have a variety of omelettes on the menu, featuring different combinations of flavors such as the California omelette with cherry tomato, avocado, and more, BBQ pulled pork omelette with BBQ pulled pork, and the Kimchi Spam omelette with Spam, kimchi, and Korean chili mayo.
“We want to grow everywhere,” Tsai said. “Popping Yolk has potential, and we want to share the brand and food in different communities.”
