Subject: Has anyone ever actually ordered avocado toast in a restaurant?
I don't like going out for breakfast because I don't enjoy most breakfast foods or paying high markup for dishes I can easily cook for my family at home. But when I do go out for breakfast avocado toast is my standard order. I don't find it any more (or less) a ripoff than anything else I can get at your typical breakfast spot.

The avocado toast breakfast at Wolfgang Puck's in E terminal at DCA is quite tasty. Pricey but tasty.

No, it's not. It's not different than ordering any other type of sandwich. And sandwiches are popular lunch options everywhere.

This. But yes, I find it incredibly annoying to have to pay $12+ for avocado toast, especially when my kid pretty much wants none of fancy toppings it often comes with.
I don’t get this. I’m irritated paying $10 for pancakes with fake maple syrup since the cost of that is about fifty cents. But fresh bakery bread and an avocado plus garnishes are probably at least a couple of dollars, plus the hassle of having an avocado that’s perfectly ripe when your kid actually wants to eat it. I think it’s less of a rip off than most breakfast items.

I order it a lot. I also make it at home. I like it on Wegmans Italian bread.

Avocado, citrus, radish, microgreens, sun dried tomatoes, feta, black sesame seeds, pomegranate seeds, red chilli flakes, dried rose petals, flavored salt, hint of black pepper... Served with a perfectly seasoned, perfectly julienned mix salad that allowed you to eat the precise amount of salad with each bite.
Oh, the avocado was mashed, spiced and piped generously on a perfectly freshly baked slice of sour bread toast with soft inside and satisfying crunch - made from the most delicious, organic, non-GMO wheat - the kind of wheat and bread that is not available in USA. Seriously folks, around the world, wheat products are a 100 times better than what is available in the USA.
The normal avocado toast otherwise is quite bleh.
I travel a lot, and I mean a lot, your claims don't stand up to merit. The US probably has the best artisanal breads and bakeries in the world. And I say this as a veteran of France and Germany (many, many, many trips). Even locally in the DMV it's hard to argue your sourdough bread in India was better than the sourdough you can buy at MOM's.
Anyway, your avacodo toast reads like an overload of sensory flavors that can't make up its mind what it wants to be. And as for the salad, I'd never eat raw produce in India (which all my Indian-American friends told me not to).

You sound as though you don't get out much or travel much OP. I am a boomer + when we visit our millennial daughter in SF, we all enjoy some great avocado toast on sour dough bread with crab + shredded red onion + pepper. It's delicious. We don't like traditional breakfast foods.

Yes, typical waste of money but often one of the healthier options.

Avocados, marinated tomatoes, poached egg, sauteed onion, chili oil, feta, micro cilantro, Italian rustico
Holy sodium bomb.
How is that a sodium bomb? I swear everyone has this site has major food issues.
Jarred chili oil and feta are salty. But if you're worried about those, I have something unpleasant to tell you about why restaurant food tastes so good....

Your kids don't have any idea what a struggle meal is as those struggling aren't buying avocados.
+1 how tone deaf
Again, they cost under a dollar. I'm in the "can't imagine buying avocado toast at a restaurant, but enjoy eating at home with garlic salt" range of middle class. It's like how I wouldn't buy oatmeal out. It is a cheap food to eat at home.
They are usually about $1.70 each at my Giant in Nova. They had them for $1 each for two weeks recently but I haven’t seen that price in years. Please share where you find them for less than a dollar.
Is 70 cents a lot of money to you?
