Hannah K Cafe, sister of The Breakfast Den, definitely offers similar delicious Asian-American fusion brunch options! However, I found the service to be very slow due to their being swamped with takeout orders along with a packed restaurant.

Hannah K Cafe is one of the newest cafe additions to the Point Breeze neighborhood. It offers Vietnamese-American fusion brunch foods such as bahn mi, egg platters, hash, French toast, pancakes, etc. The interior is very cute and cozy, definitely favorable towards casual meetups.
I came on a Sunday for lunch and it was loud and the restaurant was fully packed- which should have been my first indication of relatively long wait times. We were quickly seated and the servers were quick to get our orders. Overall, it took 30 minutes for us to get our food, which isn't unreasonable considering the crowd, but we were quite hungry while waiting. Once we got our food, they stopped checking on our table so we only had our water refilled at the end of our meal when we could finally catch one of the busy servers.
I got the French Toasty and thought it was great. The French toast was fluffy and not too sweet, and all the berries were fresh. The bacon was crisped to perfection and not greasy. The eggs were perfectly over easy.
Although I didn't get a picture, my friend got the Gracie's Crispy Fried Rice, and we both agreed it was the best thing at the table. Although not "crispy," it was not soggy at all. The dish was fried well and was large. The crispy chicken toppings were fried to perfection. We asked for a side of chili oil ($0.75 extra) and it really elevated the dish.
I'd highly recommend trying Hannah K Cafe at an "off-time" to avoid any of the backup from the high volume of orders. Also, I would suggest ordering the Gracie's Crispy Fried Rice. Lastly, I hope in the future there's more staffing to decrease food wait times. read more
