"Cereal cafe opens in times square, with $7 frosted flakes bowls"


  

          

Kellogg's is raising the stakes in the all-day breakfast wars. A new cafe in New York City will feature dishes made entirely from its cereals.

The cafe, called Kellogg's NYC, launches on July 1 in the heart of Times Square. It will be the brand's first-ever permanent restaurant.

The menu features 10 items, priced between $6 and $8, made from cereals like Raisin Bran, Special K and Froot Loops.

An order of "Life in Color" includes a bowl of Froot Loops with lime zest, marshmallows and passion fruit jam. Order "Honey Buzz" and you'll get a bowl of Honey Smacks with honey, toasted pecans and banana chips. Prefer ice cream? You can swap that for the milk.
Chef Christina Tosi, founder and owner of Momofuku Milk Bar in NYC, helped develop the recipes.

3.00 if it's a big box

It looks like they're at least adding some ingredients to kick it up a notch.

If people are happy to fork over 7 bucks, more power to them.

Didn't know how I felt about it then, still don't. But I would probably hit this one up before I hit some corporate bullshit.

In response to Reply # 4


  

          

I don't have the name at hand, but I'm pretty certain I saw an all cereal themed restaurant on Diners, Drive-In, and Dives years ago. The place I'm thinking about isn't a formal and 'posh' as KITH; it's a more playful and folksy environment.

In response to Reply # 10


  

          

i guess i'm just boggled by the business side of it.

There are enough people out there that will pay for this stuff on a regular basis? I could see myself going once but that's it really.

When Ronnie posted about his I was like maybe i'll check it out when i'm in town, but i had no idea.

my main point is that KITH wasn't the first cereal restaurant.

Besides, doesn't KITH also sell sneakers in that spot? I've never been, despite the fact I live in the boro.

The place I'm referring to from Triple D isn't in NYC from what I vaguely remember, so it doesn't have to deal with the high rent prices KITH and this new Kellogg's spot will have to deal with.

Especially if they have all the specialty toppings.

They're all over Colorado.

I don't get it. If I want pizza I want it cooked in a pizza oven.

Apparently in a lot of states they can take food stamps though. Not sure how big a portion of their business that is.

i still blame hip-hop.
