Full English or Continental breakfast?
Jump to: Newest in thread
We're greedy we have both  .
We usually start with toast, marmalade and coffee while waiting for our cooked breakfast then follow that with a pastry, fruit and yogurt and anything else that takes our fancy  |

If I'm on holiday it's
Orange juice, croissant, alpen, full English breakfast but trade the sausage and black pudding for extra egg and bacon, fried bread and toast, mug of tea.
I'm a great believer that Continental breakfasts are only there to provide the British with rolls, butter, jam, cheese and pastries to pinch and provide snacks to eat around the pool or in the room  |

Would you pass breakfast for oral sex? If you had to choose.. . "
If I had to choose yeah as long as there was a meal later in the day   |

"I normally go for the continental as I don't have much appetite in the mornings. "
Same, anything fried in the morning and I'm just asking to be knocked out for the rest of the day |

It depends what I am doing with my day
If I am up and out, I don't want that feeling of heavy belly that a full english gives
However, if I am soaking up a hangover and have a day by the pool, then it's just the job
Ideally, a good breakfast buffet is best
Fresh fruit & berries, yoghurt, pastries, coffee, iced water - and, if they look good, a couple of chunky sausages |

Both. Tables laden with overflowing freshly baked goods, amazing poached eggs, lots of choices of fruit juice and fresh fruit. If the hotel has actual honeycomb as well, even better. I miss staying in very wanky nice hotels.  |

I love a full English breakfast but I have found that hotels almost always do a really poor imitation of one.
Either it has been left in the buffet section for ages and just tastes greasy and a bit cold or if they cook it fresh (which is rare) they will go all “posh” and try to tart it up so that it becomes something that actually isn’t really a proper full English.
Rant over  |

Full English. Sets me up for the day and I don't generally eat again until dinner..
I stayed in a hotel in Dallas for a work trip once, and they had a variation on it except they threw on overdone bacon, pancakes and maple syrup, which was not for my taste, but impressive in the amount. |

"So what's the difference between Full English and Full Scottish? Is there a Full Irish or Welsh? "
As far as I know they're mostly the same with a few regional tweaks... so with Scottish you'd get tattie scones and a slice of haggis on the plate, and ideally it'd be Stornoway black pudding. Think there are Welsh and Irish versions too - all with similar substitutions of local favourites. |

Does a scotish not have Lorne sausage or for 5he uninitiated square sausage...
Irish has Sosa bread and white pudding..
Think welsh has lava bread |

Yep, I'm with you lot.
Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dine like a pauper. |

I have a bit of both too... Starting off with grapefruit...then a mini fruit salad with a variety of fruit juices also. Then a buffet full English with lots of tomatoes, 3 eggs, bacon, sausage, mushroom, mild b/w pudding, wholemeal toast, more juice and of course a pot of tea. Oooooooohhh wouldn't I just love all that now...this min  |
