National Fried Egg Standard

Every egg cooked right
Every restaurant rated

South Africa’s definitive guide to exceptional fried egg preparation and the restaurants that master it.
Our Mission & Craft

Setting the national standard

At the National Fried Egg Standard (NFES) we aim to have a National Fried Egg STANDARD A6 Table Menu on each breakfast serving table in South Africa.

We onboard restaurants daily and pair them with advertisers through a premium print media opportunity — contracted, safe, and seamless for both Restaurants and Advertisers.
