My favorite breakfast sandwich is Elle’s brisket sandwich in Mt Pleasant. Order ahead online. Too good

Elle is good food, but anybody reading this comment should be aware that a sandwich is $18 and coffee another $10.

I'm an Elle defender but yeah the prices are fucking bananas. I've also gone for the dinner service a few times and each time it was hundreds of dollars and totally unmemorable.

Their guava turnover is A+++ though

IMO, also too expensive for what it is. $14 for the sandwich + tax + service fee + tip (if you want to leave one comes close to $18-20 for a sammich.

This aint no egg McMuffin with off shelf mass produced products. The sandwich itself is practically a caricature of hipster-small-batch-homemade since everything including the hot sauce is made from scratch. They might as well tell us the hen's name. Queue Portlandia skit

I'm admittedly a Elle stan but i remember back in the day the bfast sandwich was made to order in front and it takes long AF bc they do that French omelet technique and put a TON of butter. Actually it's prob better that they make it BOH so people don't know how much butter goes into a single sandwich.

Best yes expensive and not a quick brand and go.
