At the kitchen, Chef Chele Gonzalez oversees the preparation of the savory new dishes from the new All-Day Dining & Breakfast Signatures menu. The popularity of the recent and innovative Pastrami Fried Rice (more on my post at New York via Manila: Meet the New Pastrami Fried Rice from Deli by Chele from early this year) offered new possibilities with Deli by Chele's signature NY Style Brisket Pastrami. But Chefs Chele Gonzalez and Carlos Villaflor didn't stop there. Instead, Chefs Chele and Carlos goes all-out with an all-new menu featuring a wide array of breakfast options. And that's great news for those who love breakfast food for lunch and dinner all day long.

Drawing inspiration from both classic and local flavors, Deli by Chele reimagines breakfast with its lavish selection of new dishes.

From light fare to solid meals, Deli by Chele lays out an impressive spread to fuel your day with a hearty breakfast selection you can enjoy for brunch, lunch, afternoon snack or dinner. That's comforting goodness all day long at Deli by Chele.
So grab your fresh brew and prepare to feast with the new All-Day Dining & Breakfast Signatures at Deli by Chele.
From the Deli Breakfast Sandwiches Menu, the Salmon and Avocado Toast (P 350) with their specialty homemade Feisty Fin Smoked Salmon, creamy guacamole, cherry tomatoes and soft fluffy scrambled eggs on artisanal sourdough toast offers fresh, clean yet indulgent notes with each bite. The Feisty Fin offers a colorful palette of flavors from sweet, briny and smoky capped by its luscious buttery texture (more on the Feisty Fin Smoked Salmon on my post, Meatless Friday? The Feisty Fin Smoked Salmon from Deli by Chele is Just What You Need, Now Open for Dine-In or Take-Out at Robinsons Magnolia from March this year).
The soft buttery finish of the smoked salmon is enhanced even more by the soft scrambled egg and smoothened by the nutty sweetness of the guacamole. The cherry tomatoes brings contrasting flavors and a sharp vibrant tartness for balanced notes. The homemade artisan sourdough completes the flavors with its soft and delicately crisp texture and distinctive sour hints.
When you want your eggs ben fix, Deli by Chele has you covered. The Pastrami Eggs Benedict (P 250 Solo/P 450 Whole) is Chef Chele's inventive spin on a breakfast classic using his signature NY Stlye Brisket Pastrami. Each component of the dish is perfectly executed, from the poached eggs to the pastrami, the Hollandaise sauce and the sourdough bread coming together for an excellent eggs ben.
The bold savory richness and lingering briny notes of the NY Style Brisket Pastrami are perfectly complemented by the silky smooth Hollanddaise and lusciously rich poached egg. The artisan sourdough is the perfect vessel, absorbing the richness of each of the different components combining for a flavorful and indulgent burst.
The Pastrami, Egg and Cheese Bagel (P 295) with the NY Style Brisket Pastrami, eggs and cheese in a homemade artisanal sourdough bagel packs all the flavors for a quick meal on the go. The complete hand-held meal will get you through the long day ahead...
...with each big bite delivering the comforting notes of the pastrami, egg and cheese in one richly layered weave. It's solid flavors like these that make the new breakfast selection at Deli by Chele perfect any time of day. The new Deli Breakfast Sandwiches Menu complement the current sandwich line-up at Deli by Chele for even more tasty options (for more on the other specialty deli sandwiches, see my posts Comforting Combo: Deli by Chele Introduces New Truffle Cheese Melt and Tomato Soup Pairing from early this year and Nostalgic Flavors Recreated with the New Spanish Chorizo Deli Sandwich from Deli by Chele from early July this year).
But if you're really hungry, Chef Chele and his team have more tempting treats from the kitchen at Deli by Chele...
On cue, Chef Carlos serves the first batch from the All-Day Dining Rice Bowls Menu...
...starting with the Crispy Bacon on Pastrami Fried Rice (P 295) with slabs of crisp smoked bacon topped with a sunny side-up on savory Pastrami Fried Rice. Who doesn't love bacon for breakfast? The mildly salty and smoky hints of the bacon pair perfectly with the flavorful Pastrami Fried Rice with the sunny side-up adding a layer of richness to complete your breakfast. That savory burst of flavor from the Pastrami Fried Rice just hits the spot.
Chefs Chele and Carlos then takes the ubiquitous local staple of tapsilog and upgrades it in that creative Deli by Chele style with the Deli Signature Tapa on Garlic Rice (P 295). Inspired by the college days of Chef Carlos with a regular routine of long hours prepping in the kitchen, back-to-back classes in the afternoons, coursework in the evenings and night outs with friends followed by a sumptuous breakfast of the classic tapa, egg and rice combo, the new dish is a nostalgic throwback that still works. It's timeless and comforting flavors like this that are masterfully recreated at Deli by Chele down to the subtle savory sweetness of the fork-tender beef tapa, a perfect sunny side-up and garlicky fried rice. It's a combo that still hits all the right notes with a nostalgic vibe.
Local flavors are highlighted once more in the next rice bowl with the Longganisa Pattie on Garlic Rice (P 250) with local sausage in patty form on garlic fried rice topped with egg. The familiar hints of garlicky and sweet savory hints from the longganisa drapes the palate with comforting notes completed by the egg and fried rice for another sure bet at Deli by Chele.
But it's the Deli Corned Beef on Garlic Fried Rice (P 260) that's high on my list of personal picks at Deli by Chele. Not just any kind of corned beef, this one comes from Chef Chele's winning playbook with the best-selling hand-pulled pastrami with its rich briny notes on soft and fluffy garlic fried rice and egg for an elevated corned beef dish in true Deli by Chele style. The tender strips of brisket deliver bold beefy flavors for a New York spin on breakfast.
You can also enjoy the best-selling Pastrami Fried Rice with slabs of brisket and sunny side up from their current menu. The new Deli Breakfast Sandwiches Menu and All-Day Dining Rice Bowls at Deli by Chele offer several good reasons to rediscover breakfast reinterpreted by Chefs Chele and Carlos.
For dessert, Chefs Chele and Carlos has that covered too featuring their specialty homemade artisanal sourdough bread with the Sourdough Bread Pudding (P 190), a simple yet indulgent treat with moist and soft soaked pudding drizzled with Créme Anglaise...
...and the Mixed Berries French Toast (P 190) with soaked sourdough bread topped with Mixed Berries Jam and whipped cream. The decadent duo anchored on the signature sourdough of Deli by Chele becomes the final link in your perfect breakfast. And just like that, Chef Chele Gonzalez treats your palate once more with his innovative take on breakfast building on his specialty NY Style Brisket Pastrami and homemade artisanal sourdough bread and then some as the base for a lavish new menu.
