- Come join us for breakfast in Bratislava, Slovakia as we visit cafe Mondieu to sample a range of different breakfast food items for our late morning brunch. A typical Slovak breakfast, upon research, is typically meat heavy but after having some really heavy dinners of late we decided to order a lighter menu with some fancy drinks.
This restaurant in Bratislava served up delicious breakfast and high quality drinks. As a bonus this is probably one of the last meals we've had outside for the year. We'd highly recommend checking it out.
We ordered the following food items for breakfast in Bratislava, Slovakia:
1) 2 x caffè latte macchiato
2) 1 x spinach and parmesan omelette
3) 1 x brown toast with beetroot and pomegranate hummus and regular hummus
4) 1 x Slovak cheesecake with berries

Breakfast in Bratislava, Slovakia Travel Food Video Transcript:
Good morning guys. Breakfast time in Bratislava. And it has been a little difficult finding a place this morning. Yeah, yeah. It is just we went to one place and we thought oh this would be a great place to film. We went inside and it was just way too loud. So yeah the music in these cafes is like boom boom boom. One thing we don't always show you guys is that like there are times that a restaurant or a cafe or a bar might be a really good place to have food or a drink but not necessarily a good place to film either because it is too loud, the lighting is awful or just like we're seated too close to other people so we like feel uncomfortable. Haha. So those are the awkward. Those are the kind of three conditions that cause us to kibosh a video. So alright but we found a place. We did find a place. We're at Mondieu. Yeah, apparently this is one of the best places to have breakfast here in Bratislava. And cakes. And cakes as well. Yeah, they have a great looking cake display. Um, yeah they basically have a very I would say very diverse menu. Pancakes, French Toast, Omelets. So you were actually looking up what a traditional Slovak breakfast is. What was that basically?
So it involves sausage. Yeah, it involves sausage. And we haven't seen a whole lot of sausage on this menu. Well, there is one option. One option. But to be honest I've been eating like way more meat than normal and I just like don't feel I can stomach it this morning. So we've gone for something a little bit lighter. Um, yeah, we've placed our orders and the food should be arriving soon.
The drinks are here and we both got the cafe latte macchiato with chocolate. Look at this thing of beauty. Look at those layers in there.
Alright breakfast is here and it looks amazing. I ordered the scrambled eggs with parmesan and baby spinach. And it is one of those meals that I'm just going to have to eat super quickly before it gets cold because it is actually quite quite chilly outside.
I'm basically getting two pieces of toast. Yep. One of them has like I guess it would be an original hummus. Yeah. And this over here is uh beetroot hummus with pomegranate sprinkled on top. So this is definitely not your average Slovak breakfast at all.
And since this place specializes in chocolates, cakes and baked goods Sam could not resist getting a slice of cheesecake. The fruit cheesecake just looked too good.
Alright price point time. So it came to 18 Euros total. And I thought that was a really good deal because we ended up basically getting three food items, two breakfast mains plus cheesecake and we got like the two most premium types of coffees on the menu. See you guys next time.
This is part of our Travel in Slovakia video series showcasing Slovak food (Slovakian food), Slovak culture (Slovakian culture) and Slovak cuisine (Slovakian cuisine).

Me encanta Bratislava . Después de comer tan saludable podrían venir a comer alfajores y helado!
I went to mondieu thanks to this video :) i loved brastislava and the chocolate drink was amazing
Thanks Lianis! That is great to hear. We miss it so much.
Hi guys, I am Slovak and to tell you the truth, yes, this is definitely one of the best places in Bratislava. But it is quite a "posh" place. I would say it's more French (Mondieu) and Italian inspired. If it is of any interest to you, traditionally, a lot of people might eat scrambled eggs, but definitely not with parmesian, as we hadn't even had parmesian until after the fall of the Soviet Union. And as far as sausages, I think less and less people eat them today. Nowadays, people are trying to eat a lot healthier, preferring oats, cereal,, yoghurt, or bread, butter, ham and maybe eggs, or bread with jam/marmelade/butter and honey. I wish I was there with you though, I love how you enjoy the food :)
Thank you very much! Appreciate you letting us know about that. Glad to hear people are more health conscious. I really enjoyed a big sausage at the Slovan hockey game but eating those often wouldn't be healthy for sure.
That's truth. I'm Slovak too and we definitely never eat parmesan with scrambled eggs lol. With spaghetti Bolognese it's delicious ;)
But to tell the truth - me personally don't really like Slovak food while it's too heavy for me. Also not "Bryndzové Halušky" which is traditional Slovak food. I never liked the taste of ship cheese lol.
I am so happy to hear sam also eat eggs and jam. I though i was the only person. Cant wait to watch more videos of your trips in europe. I enjoy it verry much.
So happy that you guys posted another video! I am one all of your travel and food videos and kind of re-watching some one them :) you guys are the best!
Thank you very much! That really means a lot to us. We're shooting a lot these days in the Balkans. We're excited to share that series soon :) Our guide for Bratislava comes out tomorrow.
Sorry about that autocorrect! I meant to say "finished all of your videos" lol
Looking forward to your guide tomorrow :)
Not a typical Slovak breakfast at all guys but still glad you enjoyed it. Typical breakfast would be scrambled eggs with ham or bacon, definitively some sausages, or a wild selection of sausages, maybe some liver pate, salami with bread, sandwich (hot or cold), or cereal with milk or yogurt. Many Slovaks are still looking at green ingredients like a kind of blasfemy so your breakfast was definitively "trendy" one but not the typical one. I live almost 30 years in different parts of the world and I had the privilege to try and taste some of the most outstanding world's cuisines so I believe I can make some kind of statement about our national food tradition - Slovak food could be defined like the one which doesn't kill you but will definitively make you fatter. Our cuisine is "heavy" high on calories, green unfriendly, far away from being "healthy" but is so bloody good! When I go home for 2-3 weeks (almost every year) I gain at least 1kg/week or even more! My favorite is that potato pancake stuffed with the meat you eat in another video, it is called "pastierska kapsicka" or "shepherd bag" if you like, I love that one and with a glass of red wine or good beer, it is close to nirvana moment. Actually that Zlaty Bazant beer you had is the best Slovak beer by far and it means Golder Faisant. Welcome back again!
Thank you for letting us know!
years ago i met a slovakian woman on facebook, she in that time taught english, she was so nice with me, greetings to slovakia and all the slovakians, from Brazil!
My mom used to put jam on my eggs when I was little to con me into eating the eggs. Lol. So fun watching you.
Hehehe...glad to hear I'm not the only one!
Greetings from Slovakia guys :) ...a typical Slovak breakfast would contain eggs but maybe if you would cut some sausage roast in on a pan and mix it together with the eggs that would be more authentic :)
Thank you! Really appreciate you letting us know about breakfast. We sure had a good time Bratislava. Our city guide is coming out in a couple of hours :)
Lol, I like your Slovan hat, Sam.
Anyway, thanks for the video guys. Although I'm Slovak, I'm not eating outside too often, so now I can recommend restaurants to my foreign friends more easily.
Awesome especially those coffees. Thanks for sharing 🎥👍👍👍👍🎥
Thank you very much! Some of the fanciest coffees we've had all year I think :)
I need one of those coffees today.
I know what you mean!
I sure love you guys how you get into your food.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you! We often don't have a big breakfast so when we do it is a real treat.
I love you both..you make me smile always. May I ask if you both teach while travelling? If not, how can you afford it and all the eating out.Europe is not cheap. You two should have your own tv series..you're both so articulate and very relatable. 😍❤️👏🏻👍🏼
Thank you very much! We used to teach but it has been a while since we've done that (years in fact); how, we sustain ourselves is through various online work. What we don't show is that we typically eat at home and not out that much on an average week.
One thing we've noticed in Europe is that baked goods and groceries tend to be really good value. We try to eat what is in season (fruits and veggies) and buy what locals would buy - whatever that is in the current location we're visiting.
Also groceries can be really cheap in Europe if you shop supermarkets like Lidl.
Hi guys, wow that hummus and pomegranate toast looks so interesting, I’m just picturing what that would taste like. Everything looks great.
Thank you! It was a wonderful take on hummus. I liked it a bit more than Audrey and would highly recommend trying it.
I absolutely love your vlogs....oh the food you all order...always looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much! We sure enjoy eating :)
There is at 00:01 Slovenian flag! This is probably Slovenian embassy? Also big shout out to our Slovak bros watching this video! Slava bratje!
Good eye! Thank you :)
City seems cool
Can't wait to go there
That is very cool!
That food looks great, thanks for the video.
Thank you! It was a tasty meal :)
such lucky people. traveling around enjoying life
We do feel fortunate Nitin.
Sam and Audrey - at some point, please make that trip to Antartica! You are the only travel vloggers that can do full justice to an epic trip like Antartica.
Thank you very much! That is a dream trip for us and something we do plan to do at some point. It is also our last continent to visit so we're very keen.
Eggs,toast and jam is good, it's actually the first time I've heard somebody say it's disgusting.. It's literally sold at every restaurant during breakfast
Wonderful brain teaser at the beginning of the video with the flags of Slovakia and Slovenia together, just to stoke the neverending confusion between the two countries 😆
Hahaha...I was often wearing my Slovak hockey hat in Bratislava as well.
You were saying hummus so well! Kisses from Israel 😘
Ah, thank you! We got to eat the best hummus of our lives while visiting Israel back in 2013 :)
so, I watch this vid and then notice the other video shot in Spanish. I don't know what you're saying but I like the way you say it! :-) I bet the Spanish videos will take off and have many views.
Thank you very much! We're hoping it does well over time but it could take a little while ;) We'll be putting our guides out a little faster on that channel since that is the only content we're doing there at the moment.
Breakfast +cheesecake = BRUNCH 😎👍😍
Hehehe...indeed! Indeed! :)
I just noticed that youre wearning Slovan hat
Thanks! I love that hat. It was fun watching a game.
Do you not have bags of sugar in Canada?
Lmao the Slovan hat
That cheesecake looked so delicious.
It was definitely the highlight :)
The coolest thing about Bratislava, that's next to Vienna. But I like Vienna more :) I am from Ukraine btw
They're so close to each other! We loved that short train ride.
Dude! If I was at the same table and saw you eating jam with eggs, I'd run - the other way.
LOL, that is hilarious. You're definitely on Audrey's side ;)
Don't worry Sam, you're not the only one weirdo. I love cheese /egg omelette with plenty of jam on it LOL
Love you guys
Thank you very much! :)
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos your so welcome .you have so much fun and laughs a joy to watch
Wow!!!
Thanks!
Great video! You mentioned the reasons why you sometimes don't film. Has a restaurant ever told you that you can't film, and if so, do you stay and eat or go to another restaurant?
Thank you! That is a great question. Only twice has it been awkward but we've never been told flat out not to do it. Once in Germany somebody wondered asked us what we were doing and upon explaining they were fine with it. The other time in Buenos Aires, the waiter who Audrey was speaking to in Spanish for a while let the owner know about it and she got kind of annoying hovering over our table and telling us all the things we shouldn't do. Make sure you don't film others, etc. We just ended up stopping the video on the spot and never published it.
Thank you so much for your answer. Keep doing what you are doing - you guys are fantastic.
Thank you! A couple of tips to keep in mind is to wait and put your microphone on your camera after you order. Kind of walking into a restaurant with a camera with a microphone on draws attention. Also, we take it off once we're done the speaking clips. If we want to shoot some scenes inside the restaurant I'll sometimes use Audrey's smaller camera so it just looks like I'm a tourist grabbing a few memory shots. Not actually filming something.
Thanks again. I will keep all your tips in mind. I am just starting out and still scared to do it, LOL
I hear you! It takes practice to feel comfortable. The most awkward for us even now is if we're sitting too close to somebody else who is speaking English and we can easily hear their conversation. That means they can totally hear what we're doing and if people are staring at us it makes it even worse...haha.
Slovakia food is nice
4:30 yeah it is normal slovak breakfast (scrambeld eggs )
Thanks Bernard! It was tasty!
Waow enak sekali ....
Just "Yum"
Thank you! It sure was.
Again great video He have Cap HC Slovan Bratislava Good luck !
Thanks! Love that hat. How is Slovan doing these days?
We would like to see more of the places that you visit. Nice to see you enjoying the food but videos get non-informative and boring if one just has to watch you eat and nothing else. Nice job in the past guys but watch that you do not become boring.
Thanks for the feedback. You might enjoy our guides more than our food vlogs :)
I keep meaning to make variations of hummus, never seem to get around to it. Sam, I'm a mom. Wear your jacket or at least tie it around your waist. 😊
Thanks Jen! Good tip :)
Nech žije slovensko!!!!
I dont know but its 90% chance that I made your coffee :D so thanks gyus!! 🙏
Oh, wow! If so, thank you for the great coffee
Tomáš Korbel ! We miss Bratislava.
I was born in Warsaw, Poland. I want to go to Europe, I haven't been back in a while,..??
Hi guys,one question: if you had to choose between Vienna and Bratislava,what would it be?
For architecture go to Vienna but for a chill pace Bratislava.
Nice breakfast, obviously not a traditional Slovak breakfast since there were no sausages or cold-cuts; Great video nonetheless.
Thank you! Appreciate you letting us know what would have made it better.
Dear Samuel and Audrey, your clips/videos, honestly as a non-native English speaker, I don't know what they are called; then again I guess I could google it; anyhow, I always enjoy watching your clips, please keep up the good work and I hope you make some money off this channel to pay for some of your expenses. Last but not least, I love your style, and personally I don't believe you need to change anything; in case, you thought my comment on Slovak Breakfast was inappropriate/incorrect, I was just giving you my opinion based on watching your video and I am also saying this based on the fact that I went to the Czech Rep., Hungary and Austria 10 yrs ago and although I didn't see Slovakia, I believe the Breakfast shown had an international flavor as opposed being a traditional Slovak Breakfast :) cheers
Your videos are just wonderful, not need to change anything
Its funny actually, cuz humus in slovak means like: bleee, thats disgusting.....thats what u would say, when u used that word. like: oh you farted, thats humus 😂😂😂
oh my
Can't wait to see you guys meat local bloggers and youtubers on your trips who are featured in your videos as they can show you around. Try find local food bloggers they will help you find the best food and local food and tell you which restraunts to go to. I've seen the idea from like food network and travel channel.
Thanks! Yeah, that is an awesome suggestion. For destinations we stay a little while it totally makes sense. We've been a bit rushed of late to reach out and look people up but hoping we can do that in the future though.
I hate you!
I get hungry
Ah, wish we could share Andy!

Actually, I have tried it, but only with Scrambled Eggs, I don't think, it will work for me, with, Eggs, over easy, because that is the only other way, I love, my eggs. It does work, I make a sandwich out of it, that away,..! It is good, my mother things it s weird, but, who asked, her,..?
1st
Nailed it! Thanks for being 1st :)
Cual es mi premio?
That’s awesome... however...... PERUVIAN FOOD IS THE BEST! YOU GUYS SHOULD GO BACK FOR MISTURA FESTIVAL
Thanks! We'll be back next year. Audrey's Grandma turns 90 so we'll be there to celebrate in Lima.
Why am I watching this
"Humus" in German means "soil" :-)
Hehehe....had no idea
No Problem. Another example
English "Mist" means in German "dung".
"The Silver Shadow Rolls-Royce has just got the turn again. Actually, the 1965 to 1980 produced luxury sedan should be called "Silver Mist", which means "silver dung" in Germany. However, it was recognized in good time that a sin-precious noble vehicle with the name "Silver Mist" in Germany might not arrive quite as well. Therefore they named the car "Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow"
GUTEN APPETIT....macht weiter so!
LOL, that is really funny. Silver dung ;)
Ups ment want better food try kosite
I hate humus,.. hate it, never, ever,..!
