Breakfast

System

Most places I have stayed in, I have wrapped a cob with meat n cheese or a Danish pastry or similar in a napkin and slide it into my bag - when none of the hotel staff are nearby, as some hotels have rules not allowing food to be taken out of the restaurant.

As if you are traveling far in a foreign country, the service stations or similar are few and far between plus the food is not appetizing. Or in my case, visiting a place for 6 hours and esp abroad, they take forever to serve lunch, can sit somewhere for 10-20 minutes to eat your food.

Do this when I go home too, as foreign airports don't have the variety of eating places like UK airports.

I'd have the full fry up followed by pastries (if I had the space!). The logic being I could then have a light lunch and spend my holiday enjoying my time and not just eating

I'm a porridge [skimmed milk] dribbled with honey, breakfast man. Nearest and dearest always makes it, and the honey on top is always shaped like a heart.:)

But given the opportunity of a Full English+ I'm up for it.

Got 28 nights on B&B [buffet] coming up in Malta at the End of October. According to reviews the breakfast is great, so that's lunch taken care of too.:)

Thailand and Vietnam coming up in February. Too hot to be dictated to by meal times.....when the belly shouts that'll be the time for a nose-bag.:)

The only time I really eat breakfast in hotels in on the first couple of days in the US as I will have been awake since 3am because of jet lag, my stomach thinks it's lunch time and a huge plate of waffles is a novelty. However, within 3 or 4 days I have adjusted and revert back to extra time in bed and a coffee.

The correct order in eating a cooked breakfast is bacon first, followed by tomatoes, then sausage, then mushrooms, then egg, then baked beans.

Do you leave the black pudding and fried bread on the plate?;)

You forgot the liver, beefburger and toast

A couple of my recent breakfast favourites are Dal Bhat in Nepal. For many they have it for every meal, 3 times a day, for the whole of their lives...

As I said, I'm not much of a breakfast person but I do love a Thai omelette which is basically eggs with rice and whatever leftover stir-fried meat and veg they have.

I think the best "breakfast" I've ever had was in a New York 24-hour diner at 4 or 5 in the morning after an all night drinking session. Huge pile of corned beef hash with eggs and toast. I went back to the hotel and slept very well.

You don't have to eat it all, OP.

I found that filling up on breakfast didn't enable me to skip lunch, but I wanted more.
