This one-day-only brunch – hosted by the Insta-famous baker behind Raya and soon-to-open Dua – is worth becoming a morning person for. Don’t miss out on this Malaysian-meets-Scandinavian brunch featuring custard buns and lattes made with alternative milks.

Are you a brunch person? Raymond Tan, the self-taught baker behind Raya and soon-to-open “Scandinasian” bakery Dua, certainly is. And now you can join him for a special brunch to discover what makes it the best meal of the day.

Broadsheet and The Alternative Dairy Co. have tapped Tan to put together an exclusive brunch event for one day only. Want in? The only way to join is to win tickets.

The brunch takes place at Axil Coffee on Bourke Street, where Tan will serve a spread inspired by his childhood in Malaysia.

The sit-down brunch will centre around his new spin on Malaysian kaya toast: a custard bun made with plant-based milk and served alongside soft-boiled eggs for dipping and swirling.

In a nod to traditional Scandi breakfast, the spread will also include a variety of condiments such as kaya, cheese, jam, cashew butter, as well as pickles and seasonal fresh fruit. Finally, Tan will also be serving up a nine-layer glutinous rice cake with kaya and a flan. With so much to choose from, you’re in for a real choose-your-own-brunch adventure.

The brunch will be paired with brews by Axil Coffee, prepared by two-time Australian Barista Champion Jack Simpson. He’ll also speak about the rise of alternative milks and how to best use them in lattes.

We’re giving away 20 double passes to the event. For the chance to win yours, enter here.
