Wellington eatery Prefab is a haven of house-made delights – coffee roasted on site, artisan breads and other delicious baked goods fresh out of the oven, and a breakfast menu carefully curated using locally sourced ingredients. One of the least suspecting and most surprisingly delicious items on the menu is a simple chia seed bircher muesli. A combination of basic dry ingredients is allowed to steep overnight in a wholesome elixir – it then turns, as if by magic, into a rich heavenly delight, care of a small handful of chia seeds. When you eat this dish at Prefab, it’s the addition of their own clotted-cream-consistency, smooth as silk coconut yoghurt that really makes this bircher sing.
