Whether for breakfast or dinner, from today, the café Cereal Killer, just opened in London, welcomes all kinds of cereal fans. Opened by twins, Alan and Gary Kerry, this bar offers more than 120 cereal brands, unearthed in the four corners of the planet. Whilst the classics are present, the two brothers have made a point of honour of finding versions not sold in Europe, and that they import for the occasion. Allergic or gluten-intolerant people will also find something to suit them.
And if you say cereal, you also think of milk. So Cereal Killer doesn't just stop with the discovery of this essential element of breakfast, and offers more than 30 different milks, from cow's milk to soya, almond and even lactose-free milk. The bowls can also be customised, by adding toppings to your cereals, chosen from a list of 20 products (mini-Oreo, marshmallow...). In parallel, cereal-based cakes are also on offer, such as Cocoa Pops brownies or Rice Krispies sponge cake.
According to an article on the BuzzFeed Life site, the Kerry brothers have pushed the idea further, and with other artists, have made portraits in cereal hung on the bar walls. Similarly, they sell tie-in products linked to the cereal brands, such as Kellogg's lip balm and Cheerios shaped jewellery. In parallel, the Cereal Killer website offers a compilation of international cereal adverts.
