2-Minute Review: Egg Lush Cafe’s plump, perfect sandwich

Egg Lush Cafe, the Korean style cafe near downtown Colorado Springs, specializes in a next-level egg sandwich — This week on 2-Minute Review, we’re diving in.

This egg sandwich is no ordinary egg sandwich. Served with fluffy scrambled eggs, spicy mayo and their special lush mayo, all on toasted brioche, this mouthwatering sandwich is popular in Korea for good reason. Not to mention they are so stuffed full that the sandwiches come bound in a cardboard carrier for easier handling.

We got the bulgogi sandwich and ham & cheese sandwich, and our expectations were exceeded.

The bulgogi was tender and juicy, and the eggs were fluffy and fresh. Not runny, not dry, and mixed with the bulgogi, Korean shredded ribeye, and their special, creamy lush sauce, it all comes together as, dare I say, the perfect egg sandwich.

The ham and cheese was well balanced despite the generous portion of eggs. The eggs were light and fluffy, and the bread was toasted to perfection. While we skipped out on the spicy mayo on this sandwich, the Lush sauce complemented it beautifully.

Egg Lush’s special lush sauce is comparable to a creamy, saucy and light mayo. It completes the thick sandwiches and somehow makes them less “eggy.”

Beyond their signature beasts of an egg sandwich, the cafe serves burritos, bulgogi French fries, baked goods and a selection of matcha, lemonade and coffee.

We tried the sunrise cream lemonade, and it was the perfect addition to the hearty meal. The drink wasn’t overly sweet and was especially refreshing – a must try for strawberry lovers.

While the ambiance is great with plenty of seating options, inside and outside, the only ordering method is through touch screen kiosks, a turn away for some diners.

Try for yourself by visiting Egg Lush Cafe at 1025 S. Sierra Madre Street, and watch the taste test:
