It is nice to sit outside, on an elevated terrace on Nanjing Xi Lu.
During weekdays it will probably be rather smoggy but it was Sunday, sunny and the traffic was low.
Element Fresh Restaurant is on the premises of the Ritz Portman Complex. The interior looks indeed rather fresh and they serve big breakfast sets on weekends.
A big Americancosts 60 Renminbi and includes a cholesterol and caffeine boost with 4 eggs any style and bottomless cups of cofee. Ordering a Healthy Start is both cheaper and … well likely to be healthier.
I ordered the 4 eggs and I must say they were good. There were some other things on my plate too. Very over fried bacon, some substance that might be a potato salad relative and some tasteless french toast.
Then again, the coffee was good. The healthy part was not bad at all, especially since the bread here was real.
Brunch-wise it’s a good deal provided the weather is nice enough.
