They’re On a
(Cinnamon) Roll:
Another Broken Egg Cafe
T
here could be many
different reasons that Jennifer Tito,
manager of Another Broken Egg Cafe
in Belle Hall Shopping Center, is a
perfectionist about her cuisine. Perhaps
it’s the fact that she worked in fine
dining for most of her life. Perhaps it’s
her sincere love of food and of people. Whatever it might
be, it is proving to be quite a boon
for foodies in Mount Pleasant.
Another Broken Egg Cafe is
just the place to enjoy any
meal of the day.
“I would never work
at restaurant where I
don’t love the food,” Tito
declared, gesturing to the
samples on the table that
she generously brought out
for me and my assistant,
Rachel, to wolf down.
First on the list was
the cinnamon roll French
toast: a sweet and flavorful
delicacy that made an
ordinary Thursday feel like
a holiday.
As we ate, we learned that Tito has had a successful
run so far with Another Broken Egg Café and plans to
share more of the same delicious food that she’s come to
love with East Cooper residents. The franchise, which
started in Louisiana back in 1996, has found other homes
in the Southeast, including Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh,
Asheville and even Florida, with more locations to come.
Tito herself started off working at the Morrisville, North
Carolina, location before she was fortunate to make a
move to the Lowcountry. She now oversees the South
Carolina territory, which includes a location on Market
Street in downtown Charleston.
“We opened this location in Mount Pleasant after
seeing such great success at our Charleston location and
realizing there weren’t really any breakfast cafes around,”
she pointed out. “We offer not only breakfast but many
delicious lunch options, as well as a full bar. We like to
bump it up a notch.”
A few of Tito’s favorite dishes on Another Broken
Egg’s menu quickly made my “must-try” list – the
aforementioned French toast (which we tried that day),
plus creamy shrimp ‘n’ grits, savory eggs Benedicts in
various renditions; an
assortment of made-to-order
omelets and the homemade
sausage – which I also tried
and was promptly smitten
with. Tito is willing to hear
feedback about the menu
items and even prepare
something off-menu that a
customer comes up with, all
just to make her guests happy.
“We’re happy to do
absolutely anything and
everything we can for our
guests.,” she noted. “We
want everyone to have a great
experience.”
Fans of the restaurant will be glad to know that Tito and
her talented staff offer catering for a variety of events, from
business gatherings to baby showers and weddings. Catering
clients can expect the same genuine hospitality and quality of
fresh food they find in the restaurant – and at a great value.
“It is an unforgettable experience helping to plan the
perfect event for our guests,” said Tito. “By the time of the
event, I have spent so much time with them that they feel
like family.”
