Dishes start at ¥58, and heartier plates like the Steak & Eggs, which features a 200g grilled skirt steak, is only ¥148.

The a la carte brunch menu is pretty straightforward. Dishes feature brunch classics of eggs Benedict and loaded breakfast plates, as well as comforting Latin-influenced dishes like the josper chicken and papa rellena, fried stuffed potatoes.

Papa Rellena (¥68) – Mashed potato stuffed with beef picadillo, diced stewed beef, breaded and fried, served with onion salsa and piquillo sauce. A sizeable starter, good for two to share.

Prawn Cannelloni (¥68) – Cannelloni pasta cooked al dente and stuffed with diced prawn, kalamata olives, and tomato confit, doused with hollandaise. It’s delicious, and one of the more refined dishes on the brunch menu, though, not suitable for sharing.

Tuna Tostada (¥78) – Tuna tartare tossed with avocado, corn, tomato, and cucumber, served atop crispy, brittle filo pastry.

Bhacus Breakfast Plate (¥88) – Nothing beats a loaded breakfast plate. Herbed sausage, bacon, sunny side up eggs, a comforting puy lentil stew, vegetables, and toasted sourdough.

Moroccan Breakfast (¥128) – This would be my go-to. It’s a hearty dish of tomato-cumin sauce with diced lamb saddle, tender chickpeas, spinach, eggs, and spicy lamb merguez sausage. Served with flatbread.

Bhacus Burger (¥128) – It’s a big double stack made with two smashed patties, cheddar cheese, smoked bacon, caramelized shallots, chipotle aioli, and tomato on brioche buns. Served with fries.

Salmon Chorrillana (¥158) – Grilled salmon fillet served atop a quinoa stew with tomato compote. Mildly spiced and very comforting. Highly recommend.

The Sandwich (¥88) – A favorite from the dinner menu, also available during brunch. Cacao macaroni cake with muscatel ice cream and caramel sauce. It’s a light dessert with a lot of texture.
