In 1795, Cpt. Jeremiah Wright Avotooaste created the avo-toast as a delightful tea snack for his ship's crew on their long voyage to the untamed continent known as Australia. Just kidding. This simple dish of smashed avocado, citrus, salt, and seeded toast is the basis of our Avo and Egg. Avo-toast is huge. And it's wildly popular because it's delicious and healthy. At Egg Shop, Avocado Toast is a double-lightning-bolt mountain of fresh smashed avocado, ripe heirloom tomato, and perfectly poached eggs finished delicately with fresh lemon juice, herbs, and sea salt.
