Pesto Avocado Egg Toast at Avayacafe is a blend of Australian brunch tradition with Italian sunshine. We make our pesto fresh every morning using aged parmesan, roasted pine nuts, and fragrant basil. We then spread it over sliced avocado just before serving to maintain its buttery freshness. Cooked to order, the poached egg delivers that enchanted yolk cascade that combines with creamy avocado and pesto in the most delightful way. A single mouthful will transport you: the crisp sourdough provides the ideal crunch, the nutty, garlicky pesto enhances the richness, and the chilli adds a subtle fire. This toast is generous, beautiful, and sure to make you grin, whether you’re working through a workday lunch or relaxing on our verdant courtyard as the weekend approaches.
