What's on Waimai is a monthly column where we single out delicious delivery food choices for your dining convenience.
Looking for a jianbing with bold, culinary flair to celebrate World Jianbing Day today? (Yes, it’s a thing). Then look no further than 2 Eggs, a chain of restaurants focused on creating bossed-up versions of the staple North China street food. For those of you unfamiliar with jianbing guozi (hang your head in shame), the dish is composed of a thin, mung bean pancake (think crepes) fried with eggs and then filled with diced green onions, sweet beet sauce, chili sauce (optional) and youtiao (a fried dough stick).
At 2 Eggs, the dough stick is swapped out for a crunchy cracker (pro move), and lettuce is also added to the mix. Where things get really cool, though, is with the specialty toppings, which range from the wildly popular durian and banana (RMB23), to tuna (RMB20), beef (RMB23), bacon (RMB15), tom yum-flavored pork neck (RMB24), spicy crab meat (RMB23) and meat floss and nori (RMB13).
We’re big fans of the shop’s tuna wrap, which boasts big, savory flavors that elevate this particular jianbing to the title of ‘must-try edible.’ The bacon jianbing, on the other hand, was less impressive.
With around 30 branches in Guangzhou and two in Shenzhen, PRDers can order 2 Eggs’ tasty jianbing varieties with the tap of a finger.
Price: RMB13-24
Good for: a quick bite any time of the day, hangover grub
