A step by step plan of attack to the buffet breakfast at Ivy & Jack
We all know the drill. A buffet takes days of mental pre-planning.
You need to expand your stomach just enough that you can fit more food in, but not too much that you’re too full to eat more, You can’t drink too much water, or you’ll fill up. And most importantly; you need a plan of attack.
If you, like us, are entirely food oriented – planning your day from one meal to the next – we thought we’d help you out. Behold, a plan of attack to the Ivy & Jack breakfast buffet from the experts themselves.
STEP 1: COMFY CLOTHES
Coming into the City purely for our buffet breakfast? Perfect. Wear those loose trackies. We don’t judge.
Looking for the perfect breakfast in Perth for a work meeting? Best to avoid the trackies, but no stress – bring a jacket to cover the fact that you had to unbutton your pants. No one will ever know.
STEP 2: COFFEE
Let’s be honest, this should’ve been Step 1 but preparation is key! Head straight over to our Nespresso coffee machine, press the buttons and watch the magic happen! Take a gulp of that coffee and find yourself a table. Now, you’re going to need to separate with the coffee for a second, but it’s a great way to save your prime table spot.
STEP 3: EGG STATION
We like to start with the hot food at a buffet. After all, you can eat cereal at home any day.
Our favourite part of the Ivy & Jack breakfast buffet is the Fresh Egg Station. From omelettes, to fried and poached eggs – you see it, you want it, you like it, you got it.
Freshly cooked eggs can take a few minutes to make to your liking, which means it’s ideal to put in your order straight away. Hand your order to the chef and continue….
STEP 4: TOAST
Like all good things, toast takes time.
Select the slices of your choice and throw them in our conveyor toaster.
NOTE: for the ultimate golden-brown toast, ensure the toaster is on Level 7. You can thank us later.
STEP 5: HOT FOOD
Now that you have your toast, it’s time to pile up your plate. You won’t find a breakfast in Perth better than this.
Load up the bacon, hash browns, baked beans, stir-fry (because why not), chorizo & more potato (hallelujah), mushrooms and tomatoes (can’t forget the veges). Everything your heart desires is in the one place. Heck, there’s even party pies.
Don’t forget to pick up your eggs on the way back to the table and voila, course 1 complete.
PSA. Even though we’re talking hot food, we need to inform you that there’s brie in the cold section and that goes well with anything.
STEP 6: MUSELI & YOGHURT
Feeling healthy? Now’s the best time to adventure to the cold buffet. There’s muesli, yoghurt and plenty of delicious fruit and nuts to stack on top.
STEP 7: DESSERT
It’s been a roller coaster of a ride, but one is never too full for dessert. Enjoy a couple of mini Danishes, croissants or muffins to complete your meal. Perfectly sized for sneaking out in your purse…not that we’ve done that before…
STEP 8: WALLOW IN SELF PITY
You haven’t attacked a buffet properly without a little self-wallowing. Sit back, people watch and let that food settle.
Congratulations – you have now completed the best buffet breakfast in Perth! See you again soon at Ivy & Jack.
