For brunch near Xinyi Anhe or a lane cafe on Dunhua South Road, LOST and Found became known for its European facade, bright room and Affogato after opening its first Daan location in early 2024. Food is more than a photo: Old Soul Brunch arranges scrambled eggs, sourdough, potato cake and avocado into a complete plate, while Slow Mushroom Croissant layers pressed pastry, poached egg and mushrooms for richness. It is pretty, but busy-hour voices and close tables are equally real.
● Affogato
Soft serve comes in the cup with espresso to pour yourself, making this the cafe's most distinctive dessert drink. The ice cream is quite sweet alone; coffee bitterness restores balance. Alternate ice cream and coffee for different textures instead of pouring everything at once, or it may melt before the photo is done.
● Old Soul Brunch
Tender scrambled eggs, sourdough, potato cake, avocado and sides distribute savoriness, acidity and fullness clearly. The plate avoids excess sauce. The potato cake stands out—crisp outside, fluffy within, clean in aroma and not oily.
● Slow Mushroom Croissant
A pressed croissant supports mushrooms, creamed spinach, poached egg and hollandaise. Cut it and flowing yolk binds pastry and filling. Rich butter and egg aromas meet earthy mushrooms. Paired with Affogato, sweetness and fat both run high, so sharing between two is easier than one person taking it all.
● Bread
Brunch bread is pan-seared for buttery aroma and crisp edges while retaining chew. It catches scrambled eggs, avocado and sauce. Eat it hot; left until last, it becomes only cold starch.
● Shredded-Potato Cake
Shredded potato is fried crisp outside and fluffy within with simple seasoning and direct aroma. No cheese or heavy sauce hides it, and dryness is well controlled. Ask whether an extra order is available; there is no guarantee, but no regret in asking.
Choose one brunch plate and one Slow Mushroom Croissant, then finish with Affogato; sharing among two or three is ideal. Soft serve melts, so serve it after the meal. Confirm reservation-hold time before arriving.

📌 Editor's Summary
LOST and Found has an eye-catching facade, but the potato cake in Old Soul Brunch and the pastry and flowing egg in Slow Mushroom Croissant keep it from existing only in photos. Book ahead, save Affogato for dessert and visit off-peak so crowds do not overwhelm the room and food.
