Eggslut will welcome locals hungry for its self-proclaimed “chef-driven” fancy sandwiches at 545 King St. W., near Portland St., on April 30.

The company has developed a cult following drawn to its egg-centric, sandwich-based menu.
Love your eggs served loose and smooth?
Among its most popular offerings is a sandwich named “The Fairfax,” which is described as “cage-free soft scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, and sriracha mayo on a warm brioche bun.”
Another menu item, saucily named “The Slut,” probably raises a few eyebrows. It’s essentially a coddled egg on top of potato purée, topped with grey salt and chives, and served with slices of baguette to soak up the runny mixture.

More locations eyed
The company, which has locations across the U.S., the U.K, Japan, and Australia, said it’s looking to expand to more Canadian cities.
It said it’ll open a second Toronto location this summer at Yonge and Dundas Sts.
The company also said the Toronto locations will focus on sourcing from Ontario-based suppliers, including Burnbrae Farms, which will supply them with eggs.

“Eggslut started with a simple idea: take something familiar and make it exceptional,” Andy Lee, Eggslut’s co-owner, said in a press release.
“From a food truck in Los Angeles to a global following, we’ve stayed focused on quality, consistency, and intention. Toronto is a city that truly shows up for food, and we’re excited to introduce Eggslut to the market and let the food speak for itself.”
