Agreed. I cannot recall many names of places in small towns, but I have enjoyed many of them. Once which I do remember is a mini local chain Calico Cupboard which has amazing sweet or savoury breakfasts.

While I am not a fan of what is seen as 'traditional German' food, breakfast is the exception. A real German spread minus the meat, preferably with a view of something decent is an indulgence every now and again. Your list however forgot quark!
The South German Bakery/Café Konstanz in Beijing serves a variety of such breakfasts and they insist on packing up the leftovers for you to take along. It is a nice little corner of home in a far away place.
If I am making my own breakfast my choice is a slice of 'grey' bread (rye bread) with unsalted butter (see butter thread) and a poached egg just runny enough to let the yolk soak slightly into the bread.
