Loko's take on the Filipino dish arroz caldo—a brothy rice porridge topped with chicken, scallions, lime and a soft boiled egg.

Every brunch pop-up that Loko Cuisine hosts always features a variety of different foods from around the world—and this weekend’s Eggs & Kegs is a spread of Asian-fusion fare.

Loko Cuisine's next Eggs & Kegs brunch happens on Sunday, July 16 at 11 a.m. at Deviant Libation, located at 3800 N Nebraska Ave.

Filipino rice porridge arroz caldo–typically topped with shredded chicken, hard boiled eggs, fish sauce and scallions—will be served alongside a Vietnamese-style shrimp salad and coconut Thai tea-flavored French toast.

These hearty fusion eats are joined by a spread of Deviant Libation’s sour ales loaded with refreshing flavors like cucumber, pink peppercorn, ginger, tangerine and lemon. Tickets to this weekend’s brewery-hosted brunch includes one beer, wine or cider as well. Chef John LoScalzo and his business Loko Cuisine have been hosting Eggs & Kegs brunches at breweries across Tampa Bay for an entire decade, often popping up at local businesses like Green Bench Brewing and Common Dialect, in addition to this weekend’s host—the newly-opened Seminole Heights taproom Deviant Libation.

Tickets for Sunday's Eggs & Kegs run for $43 each and can be purchased on lokocuisine.com.
