Blu Jam Cafe

Blu Jam Cafe is known to serve the most amazing french toast in the world and the first time I laid eyes upon these babies were on my friend J's instagram. They truly looked out of this world and after reading review after view on Yelp I was SO happy that I got to actually indulge in these myself. Blu Jam cafe is located in Melrose Avenue so it was perfect as we wanted to do some shopping afterwards. There was a bit of wait but the food and service was definitely worth it. Note: the servings are FRIGGING MASSIVE. We felt a bit bad as we could barely finish the food and even though we really did try our best we hardly made a dent in the mountain of food. We also had a rather intense night the night before so perhaps we weren't on our prime eating form.

Tari's Gang woohoo! 

Migas - Spicy Combination of eggs scrambled with jalapeños, chipotle, beef chorizo sausage, red bell peppers, tortilla chips and mozzarella, topped with homemade tomato salsa, served with corn tortillas and potatoes 
Can you tell how ridiculously huge this plate of food was? It could seriously feed a dinosaur. The eggs were creamy, smooth, and bursting with flavor. The spiciness along with the tang from the tomato salsa provided the perfect kick to my taste buds and invigorated my appetite. The corn tortillas were perfectly crispy and went extremely well with the creamy eggs. The potatoes were also sliced to the ideal size so that each piece was nice and crunchy. 

Steak and Eggs - Grilled Niman Ranch beef tenderloin with gorgonzola cheese, caramelized onions, red potatoes, topped with two sunny up eggs and hollandaise 
This was C's dish and I only tried a bite but he said that it was very good. I could tell from my bite that the steak was tender and well flavored. Only downfall was that C forgot we were eating Mastro's that night so he had steak for both meals which could be a win for some.

Crunchy French Toast - Egg brioche dipped in batter, rolled in crunchy corn flakes and grilled to perfection, topped with fresh fruit, served with vanilla bean sauce 
Oh boy oh boy the infamous french toast finally arrives! This was absolutely diiiivine. The cornflakes made these the crunchiest most decadent french toasts ever. The crunchy exterior enveloped a creamy sweet inside and the fruits were fresh and sweet. The vanilla bean sauce was also smooth and delicious. Heaven on a plate.

Uptown - Oven-roasted turkey breast, sliced tomato, cucumber, mayo, Dijon mustard, avocado and provolone cheese on toasted ciabatta 
This was T's sandwich and I also got a small bite of it. The bread was toasted perfectly and the filling was generous and went together very well. The avocado was lovely and ripe and the mustard and mayo provided a tangy creamy sauce for the sandwich. A very solid sandwich.

Blu Jam Cafe served some delicious food and the ambiance was warm and cozy. Service was also friendly. The food was well made and very comforting, a definitely must visit particularly for french toast lovers! All the food was delicious but I felt that the french toast was what made this place stand out.
