Eggshell Bistro is a charming hidden gem located near Hotel Carmichael and the Carmel Farmers' Market. The restaurant features an eclectic mix of vintage decor, plants, and mix-and-matched tables and chairs, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere. The friendly staff is helpful and knowledgeable about the menu, which includes several vegetarian options, most notably a phenomenal shakshuka with two eggs and extra bread for dipping. This dish is made with vibrant tomato sauce, herbaceous accompaniments, and runny eggs with creamy yolks. Guests have praised the shakshuka for its perfect amount of spice and the accompanying bread for its crunch and softness. The bistro also serves delicious drinks, such as the red rooibos cappuccino, vanilla latte, and the highly recommended Polar Opposite drink, which features a unique milk and espresso layering. The drinks can all be customized with oat milk. With its European-inspired ambiance and focus on flavor, Eggshell Bistro is a must-visit for a delightful brunch experience, although some diners noted the food portions could be small and service times may vary.
