Worth looking out for if you are on your travels the smaller version is great value too , £2.99 gets you

1 x egg, 1 x sausage, half a tom, 2 x hash browns, beans, 2 rashers bacon, slice of toast £2.99 (beware though at airports they charge approx double)

We go quite often on a Sat or Sun up till 12 noon

[RickyR]

mmmm would love a good English Breakfast. Especially black pudding. I'll be in Spain soon, so hoping that I'll find a good place to get a full English.

Paid a fiver for a bottle of beer the other day Ded, would be happy if there was a wetherspoons here.

:yeahthat: ... appeals to me also! :hubbahubba: Indeed, OUR local Wetherspoons (formerly Perth Trustee Savings Bank HQ ... appropriately renamed 'The Capital Asset') ... happens to be conveniently situated overlooking the River Tay - right next door to the church Myrna & I attend.

WOW yes. Cant get much for 2.99 here on the IOM...no Wetherspoons here either.

:yikes: We went to Aldi yesterday to buy amongst other stuff bedding plants at £1.79 a tray. I took the opportunity to invest in 5 x 500ml bottles of Courage Best and 5 x 500ml of Dutch 5% Bavaria at £1.00 per bottle. I saw in Sainsburys later they are supporting Rip Off Britain flogging the Best @ £1.95

[Arthur Little]

... of their flatuous after-effects ... :action-smiley-081: ...

[fred]

These days I get 2 Purefood hot dogs a fried egg, a plate full of white boiled rice and a spoonful of Katsup!... Yuk!
Dont rub it in!

[lastlid]

... of their flatulent after-effects ... :action-smiley-081: ...

I introduced Mrs Lastlid to baked beans and she loved em. After a few weeks I pointed out to her the after affects and once the penny dropped and she had put 2 and 2 together she has stopped eating them ever since...:icon_lol:

[Terpe]

Perfectly cooked Scrambled Egg bound with a chive beurre blanc and topped with smoked salmon. All served on a lightly toasted brioche :hubbahubba:

:icon_offtopic: There's a pub along the road from where I live; 'the 208', it's called ... happens to be located opposite the driveway to Perth Crematorium. Handy watering hole :cwm24: for funeral parties. :D

All for a fiver and this one fills you up :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[rusty]

You see the new comedy carpet, Rusty?

Yes, as we were walking up to it, we wondered why all the people were walking in circles and looking down.

[RickyR]

So the essential ingrediants for the Breakfast of Champions is:

Fried Eggs or Scrambled Eggs
Sausages
Bacon
Fried Bread
Toast
Black Pudding
Hash Browns
Baked Beans

mmmmm :-) When we lived in Cebu there is a guy there who makes his own bacon, sells it pretty cheaply. Living in the Middle East means pretty no pork (its available in special pork shops, but it isn't cheap).

I've got to admit, on rare occasions I do like Smoked Salmon with Scrambled Eggs on Toast :-) Yum Yum

[lastlid]

I remember taking bacon and sausages, along with hop extract into Libya where it was banned, they would often intercept it in Immigration but not always and that meant providing a "pork" lifeline to those that were there semi permanently. The nearest one could get otherwise, was beef bacon, which wasnt really close to the real deal.

[Jamesey]

When I cook my cooked English breakfast, the essential items are:

Bacon (grilled)
Fried eggs
Black pudding (grilled)
Tomatoes (tinned, good quality)
Fried mushrooms (the big flat brown ones)
White toast
Coffee

Optional extras are:

Sausages
Baked beans
Fried bread
Hash browns / fried potato
Tea
Orange or grapefruit juice

When my wife's family visited, they loved it! Apparently, her brother has looked all over Manila and hasn't found a better "English" breakfast then mine! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

http://unionjacktavern.com.ph/menus.php?catid=1Sounds like a case of an ex pat ripping off other ex pats. :NoNo:

I've never had a full English over in the Phils but I did manage to get a bacon sarni for the equivalent of about 20p. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

My ultimate breakfast : Beans, Crispy Bacon, Lincolnshire Sausage, Fried Egg, 2 Hash Brown, 2 Slices Fried Black Pudding, Grilled Tomato, slice of hot toast with lurpack, Half Slice Fried Bread, Brown Sauce, Smooth Orange Juice, Fresh Ground Black Coffee. :)

[South-east boy]

Mine would be: crispy bacon, fried or scrambled eggs, mushrooms, fried tomatoes, fried bread and beans. Maybe sausages too if they are nice ones! Not had one for ages and thinking about it is making me hungry! :icon_lol:

[Sunny11]

I would consider "Italian food" as a healthy breakfast which is simply mind- blowing and ultimate food i had ever.
