Zuppa pavese

Zuppa pavese ('Pavia soup') or zuppa alla Pavese ('Pavia-style soup') is an Italian soup consisting of broth into which fried slices of bread and poached eggs are placed. It is usually served with grated cheese.[1]

The south German name for French toast, pafese or pofese, is derived from this dish.[2]
