A dream spot with even dreamier views. Their avo toast with sesame seed-crusted avocado, beetroot hummus, and zucchini on sourdough is a must-try. Please note Bookplate is closed for renovations and will be reopening on April 1.

Banana split French toast with dulce de leche, choc sauce, candied almonds, glacé cherries, vanilla ice cream AND rainbow sprinkles. I feel like not much more needs to be said here.
