Cali Uptown, the Cali Sisters' restaurant in the 10th arrondissement, unveils a Californian brunch that's as generous as it is comforting.

Californian ambience at Cali Uptown, with a hearty and comforting brunch, served in a friendly atmosphere by a frankly adorable team. This is what awaits you at the Cali Sisters' second restaurant, in the 10th arrondissement, on Saturdays and Sundays. And did you know? Cali Uptown is now open non-stop, from 10am to 6pm, for a late breakfast or a day of telecommuting!

Head for Venice Beach, with its sandy beaches and palm trees, every weekend of the year. On the menu: fresh, local, seasonal produce; American-influenced recipes, of course, but also Italian, Mexican and Mediterranean; and classic brunch dishes revisited with a Cali Sisters twist.

Given the success of Cali Uptown's brunch, reservations are a must. And it's a pretty reasonable price: €35 for brunch, with a savory dish, a sweet dish, a cold drink and a hot beverage; €40 for brunch, plus unlimited mimosa cocktails - with a Sex and the City vibe.

The little ones even have the right to their own brunch formula at 20€, a great way to spend a gourmet weekend with the family! Unlike many brunches in the capital, which offer an affordable brunch (at least at first glance), Cali Uptown's brunch doesn't play any tricks on gourmets, i.e. adding +5€ if you choose a savory dish, +3€ if you choose a sweet dish; and it's nice not to feel cheated!

Among the 5 savory dishes are theavocado toast, topped with ripe avocado, seed salsa, pickles and feta cheese; and theegg sandwich, a North American breakfaststaple, with its brioche bun, organic fried egg, bacon slices, cheddar sauce and spicy mayo to give you the kick you need to wake up refreshed.

On the sweet side, we can't recommend enough the Cali cheesecake with lemon zest, absolutely indecent in its creaminess and indulgence (look at the size of the beast!), the very fluffy pancakes with maple syrup, figs and dukkah, or the waffles twisted by the presence of just-crisp pumpkin seeds, accompanied by whipped chai mascarpone, figs and caramelized pecans.

As for drinks, here again, the most fun drinks are included in the formula, whether hot - chai latte, excellent golden latte with turmeric and ginger, hot chocolate - and cold drinks - squeezed orange juice and even more original fresh fruit juices, such as Yumi Pink (apple, strawberry, orange, raspberry, coconut milk, orange blossom water) or Yumi Green (apple, cucumber, spinach, kale, lemon, vitamin C).

A Californian brunch full of surprises and good vibes, to be enjoyed on Saturday and Sunday. So, why not treat yourself this weekend?
