Full English
My favourite breakfast is and always has been, a full English. I couldn't eat it every day, heck I couldn't eat it more than once a week but there is something so satisfying about it.
Whether it's the meaty Hawksmoor breakfast (below) or the diminutive take on a full English at Pollen Street Social as a starter (photo to follow when I get it off my old Blackberry) in the evening, it's clearly my favourite. Eggs Benedict, French toast with crispy bacon, waffles or a simple mushroom omelette all come a close second. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6051/...c18a50887d.jpg |

Omelette with an egg on top? .

Not specific to any one country, but my favorite breakfast is a full brunch at any one of a number of higher-end Asia hotels. Eggs, Dim Sum, fresh juices, coffee/tea, et al. YUMMY!

Brunch in a good hotel in Singapore is always memorable.... wait, does that qualify as BFast...?????

I have had breakfast buffets with a combination of American, English, Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese. Unfortunately, when I return from an Asian business trip, I have somehow "found" an extra 10 or 15 lbs. |

I cook breakfast for my children nearly every morning. During the week, it's egg White omelettes with a fried or poached egg on top or Porridge with sultana's and a variety of fruits.

I have always loved the German and Swedish breakfasts. I love the open faced sandwiches and bread with jam and cheese!

Wherever Sausage Egg Mc Muffins are served ^

I have a rose-tinted view of the British Army Breakfast in the mess! Elements of a full English (scrambled eggs, toast [fried bread if a particular chef was on], baked beans, stewed or fried tomatoes) as I don't eat meat. They just had it down to a fine art. Less so where breakfast was served 'cafeteria style' but even then it wasn't bad!

Coffee, cigarette and a bad mood! Love it! Hilarious.

But am also very fond of a Full English/Scottish/Irish on weekends and special occasions or then a traditional Chinese/Japanese/Korean brekkie that have become very familiar during the years. Btw, that Hawksmoor breakfast pic looks all too delicious...Can't wait to get there now to try. :D |

I'm a fan of Pho (beef noodle soup - Vietnam), Mie Goreng (fried noodles - Indonesia), String Hoppers (somewhat pancakes served with curry - Sri Lanka) or a Masala Dosa (large crepe with filling - South India)

Those are my personal favourites too. Including the acquired taste of herring in the morning. ;)

Nice...... I will confess to never have had a Hawksmoor breakfast, but after your post I will make a point of making sure I have one in the not too distant future....

The baked beans with small pieces of pig trotter are truly delicious but it's the HP gravy (HP sauce based gravy) makes a brilliant breakfast, exceptional. |
