Breakfast has always had a special place at Pumpkin Tales. It’s the meal that sets the tone for the day, and it doesn’t need to be elaborate to feel good, does it?

Our Creative Chef and Co-founder, Chindi Varadarajulu , has always loved beginning her mornings with fresh fruit, and this bowl is a little nod to that ritual. Smooth, creamy hung curd, whatever fruits are in season, and our house-made granola for a generous bit of crunch. It’s simple, nourishing and full of the kind of deliciousness that makes you want to take just a few more minutes at breakfast.

A smooth shot of espresso with warm milk, bringing a soft and creamy texture to every sip. The coffee is mellow and balanced, with just enough richness from the milk to make it comforting without feeling too heavy.

Simple, familiar and easy to enjoy.

What’s for breakfast? 🥞🍳☕ Swipe to see what’s on the table.

A little savoury, something hearty, a touch of spice, and of course, coffee to bring it all together. Our Kimchi Cheese Toast brings the kick, the Sweet Potato Breakfast Platter keeps things wholesome, and there’s always a good cup of coffee to go with it.

Let’s talk about the fiery red paste that gives our Harissa Chicken it’s characteristic colour. This North African chilli paste originated in Tunisia, where even today, it’s recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Harissa is typically made from dry chilies, garlic, olive oil, and warm toasted spices like cumin and coriander. Despite how it looks, Harissa is not all about heat. Its flavour is smokey, earthy, and layered, because those toasted spices carry just as much weight as the chillies.

Rubbed onto our chicken and grilled, the resulting flavour is bold, but not just “hot”; it’s much more complex and grounded than you’d expect, and certainly earns its place on that UNESCO list.

If you asked us what our favourite comfort-meal pairing is, this is probably the answer you’d get. Our famous (or at least we think so) Pumpkin Soup, to go with a simple Sourdough Sandwich. We’d pick this tomato, pesto, and mozzarella one, but the options are endless. The soup & sandwich combo is a tried-an tested one, and is still a favourite for a reason; and that’s because there’s truly no pairing more wholesome. End with a gelato, any gelato, and you’ve got yourself a perfect meal to fill your stomach and your soul.

That tangy, nutty, herby crust that makes this fish dish SO delish, is Zaatar; an ancient spice blend from the Levant. For centuries, it has been central to West Asian and Mediterranean cuisine and food culture, but what exactly is it?

Zaatar is a versatile mix of herbs and spices that is balanced in three very specific ways; an earthy base from herbs like dried thyme, oregano & marjoram, a tangy kick, usually from ground sumac, and a distinctly nutty finish from toasted sesame seeds. While the exact recipe can vary from region to region, the balance does not.

Rubbed onto a slice of fresh fish and finished on the grill, it turns into a savoury crust that’s a little citrusy, a little smoky, and wholly delicious.

“I always order the Perogi when I am at Pumpkin Tales.” says Saritha Rao, ”It’s the most comforting dish”. So what makes our Perogi so comforting? Maybe it’s the mashed potato filling, or maybe it’s the cheddar folded into the mashed potatoes. Either way, we’d say that “comforting” is the perfect word to describe this dish. The herbed yoghurt and chilli oil just elevate it to the next level.

The two ingredients that do the heavy lifting in our Balinese curry are both aromatics, but they couldn’t be more different from each other. The kaffir lime leaves hit at first bite, and awaken the palate with with their sharp, citrus-floral brightness. Then, the galangal settles in: peppery, woody, and grounding. One evaporates quickly, while the other lingers, and it’s exactly that balance of lightness and depth that makes this flavour combination so distinctive, and this dish so irresistible. Have you tried it yet?
