"Tanzie’s is a Northern Thai spot that’s a jolt of energy for brunch-goers in Berkeley. The airy restaurant specializes in lava eggs, a softly scrambled egg laid over a mound of rice with your protein of choice. Go for the strips of caramelized pork jowl or the housemade sausage that get charred to a deep brown crisp on the sides, and pair it all with fluffy Thai beignets dunked in condensed milk. Eating here will also motivate you to turn your phone face-down and spend an hour soaking in natural light from the charming, living room-like space—there’s a little nook tucked away in the corner, and even a fireplace.
