Top Chef's Ryan Scott Mission Beach Cafe.jpgWake Up with Top Chef's Ryan Scott
  • By: Jennifer Gaines
    July 01, 2008

Well, I've yet to indulge in the New American cuisine, so I can’t speak for his food...but his dimples are absolutely to die for!

Ryan Scott (a.k.a. THE mega-hottie from Bravo’s Top Chef) is now steaming-up the kitchen at San Francisco’s Mission Beach Café. SF foodies can tell you: even pre-Ryan, this ultra-mod café was a neighborhood hotspot. And the proof is in the huevos.

Recently awarded 7x7 magazine’s pick for Best Brunch, this place is where you want to be on a Saturday morning. Heck, who wouldn’t want to start their day with Ryan Scott cookin’ them some eggs?

Besides, brunch is one of Ryan’s specialties. Just to give you a little taste of what to expect, the menu features Soufflé Pancakes with Blueberry Cream ($10); Mission Beach Egg Sandwich on a Housemade English Muffin with Roasted Tomato, Caramelized Onion, White Cheddar and Potatoes ($7.50); Citrus Cured Salmon, Potato Latkes, Poached Eggs, Hollandaise, Housemade Crème Fraîche ($13.50); and more.

Hey, Ryan, I can’t make up my mind! What does the executive chef recommend?

Mission Beach Cafe has the BEST canneles in the city. This is a small pastry native to Bordeaux, France and it is to kill for. It looks like a little mini Bundt cake.

Canneles -- yum! I think I ate at least one a day last time I was in Bordeaux. In fact, I tried to take a few home with me, but they don't travel well. (Mostly because I ate them before I actually got home!)

Canneles aside, I must admit, you had me at "Ryan Scott."
