By this point, avocado toast has seen it all. Some are stacked high, some are stacked low. Some are topped with Tex-Mex fixings, some are topped with eggs. Some come served as a side, some come served as a main dish. At Kefi Streetside Café, the avocado toast goes full Greek.

 The “Fancy Like” option at the walk-up window café in downtown Bradenton brings together some iconic sun-soaked flavors from the Peloponnese Region of Greece. More specifically, it includes diced bits of Kalamata olives from the region to go along with sundried tomatoes, feta cheese and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Finished off with a sprinkle of oregano, the two slices of toast are savory, creamy, rich and filling with a touch of something new. And at just $10, there’s enough moolah left over to snag one of the café’s signature coffee drinks, which feature a full menu of options from Buddy Brew.
