Quaker Oats recently launched an all-new breakfast cafe called the 'Oat Café' in Shoreditch district of London, offering a different variety of porridge every half hour.
The three-day pop-up operates from 9am to noon, featuring recipes that have been created The Great British Bake Off's first-ever winner Edd Kimber, as well as cook, author and founder of We Are Food, Anna Jones.
To make the breakfast cafe even more interesting to visit, it is being described as an "Instagram-driven cafe," where the porridge dishes given out are on rotation, based on the number of social media likes they get. Some of the delicious porridge options that are being served include Mango + Coconut, Black Sesame + Chili and Peanut Butter + Jelly.
