Second Location for Eat Chow
Eat Chow, a casual cafe serving an eclectic mix of international cuisine for the past four years in Eastside Costa Mesa, just opened a second location in West Newport at Newport Shores. They’re not kidding when they say they’re all over the place with food choices. You can find ribeye burritos to almond encrusted marscapone French toast on the menu, along with Japanese, Mexican, British and Cuban inspired dishes. It’s a hot spot for breakfast lunch and dinner daily, and for good reason.
Eat Chow’s team comprised of Amy Curran, Francisco Perez and Brian McReynolds serve up delicious truffle mac n’ cheese, warm curry chicken salad, French dip with au jus, Mexican chilaquiles, and the Reuben with homemade red cabbage sauerkraut. And at Eat Chow 2, they will also be cooking up hundreds of new recipes to test out in the new state-of-the-art kitchen. The adventurous recipes are made from ingredients arriving daily.
Current specials include breakfast carnitas tacos with scrambled eggs, braised Bajio style smoked pork, blueberry basil habañero salsa, avocado, cojita cheese, Mexican crème, flour tortillas, and a cup of black Beans; and sweet potato and goat cheese frittata with shallots, fresh thyme, goat cheese, lightly dressed mache, chipotle aioli drizzle, and garlic crostinis; or Bajio style BBQ pulled pork sandwich with sweet and spicy slaw, whole grain mustard aioli, manchego cheese, toasted brioche bun, and side salad.
Eat Chow 2 took a different design aesthetic at its new location. Designed by Ross Morgan and inspired by a Danish, mid-century modern look with earth tones and seaside color accents.
Open 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday and Saturday; and 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday.
