Our founder, Chef Rachel, grew up in the South, influenced by her two sugar-loving Grandmas. Baking and eating cookies, Bojangles (biscuits), breads and other delicacies were forms of communication, a way of showing — and sharing — family love. After experimentation and hands on experience in the industry, she attended the Culinary Institute of America, Napa Valley, in Baking & Pastry, graduating at the top of her class. In 2004, she struck out on her own, founding Blackmarket Bakery in an inauspicious industrial space in Irvine, CA. Since then, her product line, legend and lore have grown. Her incredible cakes, cookies, brownies made from wine flour and fresh breads are just a few items that showcase Chef Rachel’s culinary playfulness. Furthering her goal of empowering the community with quality, Blackmarket Bakery offers a selection of fresh, whole-food based items that are pleasing to the body and the mind. By using fundamentals – butter, flour, sugar, eggs (all black market goods during WWII) – Chef Rachel focuses on delivering what the community is missing.

Break of Dawn open its doors in Laguna Hills on Aug 23, 2006 where it remained for seven years before relocating to its current spot just a few doors down. The decor is modern eclectic with graffiti art on the wall and church pews as banquettes. Look closer and you will see tabletops sitting on recycled sewing machines. Everything at Break of Dawn is a labor of love especially when it comes to Nguyen’s cuisine. His fine dining style comfort food ranges from classics such as mac n cheese, to bacon and eggs. But don’t expect a traditional dish to hit the table. There are always twists and turns always reflecting Nguyen’s out-of-the-box creativity and desire to bring a touch of his Vietnamese heritage to the plate.

Breakfast is a big favorite with Wilma’s customers. Featured are homemade pancakes, waffles, French toast, every kind of egg dish imaginable and the Balboa Belly Bomber (a warm French roll stuffed with egg). At lunchtime, salads and sandwiches made from home cooked roasts, turkey and chicken take center stage. All Mexican dishes come from the family recipes of the cooks including homemade guacamole, enchilada sauce, chile rellenos and salsa. You’ll also find a variety of pasta dishes and fresh seafood.

For many years, our competition has only offered a limited menu of basic items with quick service. We have never been satisfied with just the basic items. Instead, we have served a variety of menu items. We cook every meal to order. We take pride in our satisfying, quick breakfast menu, a meal which has always been at a premium for people on the run. Our dinner menu offers you the flexibility of a fine dining experience, with choices of soup or salad and choice of baked or mashed potatoes, fries or rice at a much lower price. We have always listened to our customers; when you asked us to serve breakfast all day, we changed. Here at Yellow Basket we think our home-style menu combines a wider variety of menu items and affordable pricing that beats any other “quick-service” restaurant hands down!
