Pancakes, French Toast and Brussels Waffles: Sweet Breakfast in Troy

If you're looking for pancakes, French toast or waffles in Troy, NY, Mumu's Cafe makes all three from scratch: fluffy homemade buttermilk pancakes, thick French toast made with challah bread, and Brussels waffles pressed fresh to order. Here's a guide to choosing between them.

French toast

Our French toast uses four thick half slices of challah bread dipped in a vanilla egg batter and grilled. The French Toast - Fruit is labeled "most popular" on the menu. The Nutella Stuffed French Toast is filled with Nutella, and the French Toast Whip Berry comes with berries, whipped cream and a berry drizzle. If you want something more like a sandwich, the Monte Cristo French Toast has roasted turkey and cheddar, and the Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast is topped with fresh strawberries and white chocolate.

Pancakes

Pancakes come as a short stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes. The Classic Pancake keeps it simple with syrup and butter. The Chocolate Chip Pancake, Berry Pancake, Strawberry Banana Pancake and Strawberry Banana Nutella Pancake add toppings, and the Breakfast Pancake and Combo Breakfast Pancake come with eggs and natural turkey bacon for a sweet-and-savory plate.

Brussels waffles

Our Brussels waffles are fresh-pressed and made from scratch, and our menu says plainly that we don't use any kind of instant waffle mix. Sweet options include the Banana Nutella Brussels Waffle, Hazelnut Nutella Brussels Waffle, Strawberry Nutella Waffle, Oreo Waffle, Cinnamon Crunch Waffle and Whipped Berry Brussels Waffle. Prefer savory? The Bacon Egg and Cheese Waffle puts eggs, turkey bacon and cheese on a waffle. Read more in Brussels Waffles 101.

Tips for ordering sweet breakfast

French toast and pancakes are best eaten right away, so if you're ordering for pickup, time your order to when you'll be here. Many of the sweet items are tagged vegetarian and halal on the menu, including the Classic Pancake, Chocolate Chip Pancake, Nutella Stuffed French Toast and French Toast - Fruit. If you want something less sweet, ask about the egg-based pancake and French toast plates, which come with turkey bacon and eggs.
