Introducing Jared and Alyssa Ramos, two classically trained chefs and the owners of Hollan-Dazed restaurant. The couple strive for perfection for their guests, and, as Alyssa put it, encourage them to “break them out of their shell!”
Jared and Alyssa label their breakfast restaurant as “fast and casual,” a perfect description for their unique and personal approach! The intricate entrees are delivered quickly, and the service is impeccable as well as convenient. Everything down to the sauces, syrups, and sausages are handcrafted in-house. For example, the pork that composes the sausage, like many other ingredients, is from a local farm here in Colorado that specializes in high-end meats.
The attention to detail is impressive, but not surprising from a couple who travels the world to discover new ways of creating amazing food. When asked about the inspiration behind the eclectic menu, Jared detailed the plethora of culinary talent that is the faced-paced, revolving door that is the prestigious restaurant scene in Las Vegas. For the couple, every visit to sin city was a new experience in fast, casual cuisine that was simultaneously innovative, sophisticated, and made with passion.
Jared and Alyssa agreed that the avocado toast is one of the most popular items on the menu. If an entree could get dressed everyday in the morning, this one would be draped in gold and white robes, donning a flower crown.
The toast itself is thick-cut, vegan, and embellished with seeds. Poised on top is a fresh sliced avocado rose, dressed in arugula and their green goddess vegan Hollan-Dazed sauce. Chile roasted pepitas and a watermelon garnish complete the lushious ensemble. The entire dish is vegan, unless you choose to add bacon, pork belly, or an egg your way. Smoked tofu is an option, too, of course!
The unique menu offering at Hollan-Dazed is not the only detail-oriented aspect of the restaurant, the creativity runs deeper than the spectacular entrees. There are two hidden film references throughout the establishment. Stop by and see if you can identify these, and other “easter eggs'' that are hidden in plain sight.
Needless to say, Hollan-Dazed is a cultivated, avant-garde breakfast place with what seems like endless possibilities. Jared described the concept of the restaurant as “a unique and eclectic take on your childhood favorites,” but, again, the owner’s humility sells the menu short, as the assortment consists of homespun, visionary creations that bring a unique and exciting culinary culture to Broomfield.
