Jack's Wife Freda

Green Shakshuka

Eggs poached in a vibrant tomatillo and herb sauce — lighter and brighter than the red version, with a grassy, slightly tangy finish that sets it apart from every other shakshuka in the city

Rosewater Waffles

Waffles infused with rosewater, topped with Lebanese yogurt

Rose Harissa Eggs

Soft-scrambled eggs served with rose harissa, a floral and mildly spicy condiment that elevates a simple preparation into something genuinely memorable

Cacio e Pepe Waffle

A savory waffle built around the classic Roman pasta flavors — sharp pecorino and cracked black pepper — an inventive brunch item that rewards the curious diner

Chicken Schnitzel

Crispy breaded chicken cutlet served with fresh salad

Roti with Soft Scrambled Eggs

Flaky, buttery roti served alongside creamy scrambled eggs — a nod to the South African breakfast tradition and one of the menu's most comforting offerings

House Cured Duck Bacon

In-house cured duck bacon with crispy texture and salty bite

Madame Freda

Pressed sandwich with duck prosciutto, cheddar bechamel, gruyere and a sunny side up egg

Salad with Lemon Dressing

A crisp, herb-forward salad dressed with a bright lemon vinaigrette — simple but executed with the kind of care that makes it a reliable side or light starter

Grapefruit and Yogurt

Fresh grapefruit served with yogurt, a light and refreshing starter

Malva Pudding

A traditional South African sponge dessert — sticky, warm, and soaked in a buttery caramel sauce — one of the few desserts on the menu that genuinely earns its place

Spaghetti Squash Bowl

Roasted spaghetti squash with Mediterranean toppings

Freda's Lemonade

A house lemonade that regulars swear by — refreshing and lightly sweetened, a good non-alcoholic anchor for a long brunch
