I've not had a proper cafe blow out for ages but what do you have to have before it is considered a proper fried breakfast. For me; HAS to have Bacon - well done Sausages - plural, not single Fried egg Baked beans Toast Tea/Coffee Can ALSO have Chips - a must for some but not all Scrambled eggs - instead of fried Poached eggs - instead of scrambled Mushrooms Black pudding White pudding (when in Ireland) Square sausage (when in Scottishire) Fried bread Hash browns Bread & butter Juice NEVER have Bubble & squeak - pikey food
bacon, sausages, eggs, beans, mushrooms, tomatos. toast. steaming pot of tea. massive dump. and relax.
Bacon minimum of 3 rashers, 2 sausage, 2 hash browns, minimum of 2 slices of black pudding, 2 fried eggs, heap of fried mushrooms, smallish dollop of baked beans, 1 grilled tomato sliced in half and finally a slice of fried bread. combination of sauce, ketchup on the bacon, hash brown, fried bread and black pudding, brown sauce on the sausage and mushrooms. Worcester sauce on the beans and tomato.. 1 large mug of tea. That is the perfect breakfast.
bacon x 4 eggs x 2 sausage x 2 square sausage x 2 black puddin x 2 beans x 457 fried bread x 2 tottie scone x 2 hash brown x 2 mushrooms x 18 tomato x 2 tomato sauce x 10ml3
I forgot tomatoes . Wouldn't include them in my fry up as I can't stand them. What else did I miss out? There must be something else, each region seems to have its own take on the gut buster. Would a hamburger be included? I've seen it on some menus but seems rather excessive.
Bacon - near raw Sausages - square or tomato Fried eggs Baked beans tattie scones fried bread Black pudding Haggis Mushrooms All drowned in HP Brown Sauce Tea (2 sugars love) When in Nigelshire, I'll add Hash browns
3 sausages , 2 rashers , 2 black 2 white puddings, beans, 2 eggs,2 hash browns and 4 toast. Big glass of orange juice and a cup of tea.
I have to admit I am also partial to a full American with buttermilk pancakes, streaky bacon, eggs over easy, US hash browns (more like diced spuds or a rosti than the triangle ones we get) with fresh juice and fresh coffee. International House of Pancakes was like a second home when I was in the States.
I'm against tinned tomatoes with breakfasts, you get too much seepage which contaminates anything crispy, thusly making it soggy. Beans are also dangerous for this.. when cooked at home i spoon the beans on making sure not to get too much bean juice on the plate thusly minimising contamination of crispy items such as hash browns or crispy bacon. If I am having a cafe belly buster breakfast then you have to stay on your toes and quickly use the sausage to create a barrier holding back the tomato juice and bean juice. If the cafe owner has f ucked this up by putting said items on opposite sides of the plate, then plate require a total reshuffle to minimise contamination. I've never thought about this subject before.. Haggis for breakfast?? bet thats quite nice, you lot slice it then fry it??
I have a witty tale of free breakfast in Mallorca off an English cafe place but I couldnt be ****ed typing it out. Nigel was not impressed though.
