Broken Yolk Cafe to bring brunch concept to Frisco, Plano, Allen with North Texas expansion
California-based breakfast, brunch and lunch chain Broken Yolk Cafe will open four new locations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, including eateries in Plano, Frisco and Allen, according to a Sept. 23 company news release. JP Wu and John Zhang, franchisees of the four new locations, have also purchased the franchise's existing restaurant in McKinney.
On the menu: The restaurant’s menu features a variety of breakfast items including seven types of egg Benedicts, pancakes, waffles, avocado toast, crepes, skillets and more. Lunch items include burgers, sandwiches, wraps, salads and soups.
Quote of note: “The coming locations will continue to target suburban cities in north [Dallas-Fort Worth], given the tremendous population growth and business expansion the area has seen in recent years,” Zhang said in the release.
Solidcore recently held a soft opening and has scheduled a grand opening for Oct. 18 in north Plano, a company representative said.
The details: The fitness studio offers 50-minute high-intensity, low-impact strength training workouts on the brand’s custom-built reformer machine, the representative said in an email.
