There is no single Australian stage: each city has its own, worked out from its own cafes with the same rules. This is the stage most of the cities share (Perth, Gold Coast, Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra); every city's own stage is in City by city.
Emerging: Fewer than 5 Sydney cafes have it, or the first cafe post or review we have is under 120 days old, or creators are posting it before any cafe has it. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.

Biggest in Perth, on 5.4% of its cafes in the last 90 days.
Each card counts the city's cafes with a post, a customer review or a current menu naming it in the last 90 days. Its share is of that city's own cafes, so a smaller city can be ahead.
We don't read Perth, Hobart, Adelaide and Canberra cafes' own posts yet, so their figures come from Google reviews and menus only.
“Where to get one” lists a different set: cafes with it on a current menu or in a cafe's or creator's post, whenever it was. That is why a city's count there is not the same.

Each bar is how many cities had a cafe post or review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
Each city appears in the month of its earliest post or review in our data and grows as more of its suburbs have it. Its size is its cafes so far, never added to another city's.

Poached eggs on garlic yoghurt with chilli butter and herbs, usually with bread on the side. The Froth has seen it at cafes in 8 Australian cities (Perth, Gold Coast, Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney and Canberra) as of 13 Nov 2026.

The "Where to get one" list on this page has every menu, city by city, with the price where the menu gives one and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.

Of the cities The Froth reads, Perth has it on the biggest share of cafes: 5.4% of Perth cafes in the last 90 days, against 5% in Gold Coast and 4.6% in Hobart. Each city's share is of its own cafes, so a smaller city can be ahead.
There is no single Australian stage: each city has its own, from its own cafes. The Froth rates it Emerging in Perth, Gold Coast, Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Canberra; Fading in Sydney as of 13 Nov 2026.
Australian cafes also sell turkish eggs as "cilbir". The Froth counts every one of these names as the same trend.
The earliest cafe post or customer review about turkish eggs that The Froth has, in any city we read, is from 28 Nov 2023. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
Every city is counted on its own, with the same rules: a cafe counts for turkish eggs from the first public post or customer review we found about it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. A city's share is of its own cafes we see well (an Instagram post or a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once), and its change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before. Cities' cafe figures are never added together, because we read some cities' posts and others only from reviews and menus. Searches are monthly search demand across Australia with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
