welshbairn Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I usually have a light breakfast abroad, a full English leaves me bloated and struggling for the morning. Huevos con patatas does me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 One time in Prague we stayed in a swanky hotel. The restaurant downstairs tried to cater for all tastes, and you could actually get a decent cup of tea (i.e. not a glass of luke-warm water with a tea bag + slice of lemon on the side). You could even fashion together a fry-up from their eggs, sausages, toast, mushrooms etc (no tattie scones or black pudding obviously). They mixed things up a wee bit every day. One day we went down to be greeted by a bowl of Brussel Sprouts with bits of bacon... gave it a bash ... lovely stuff. It certainly wasn't a Czech dish (or indeed any country's dish) but it kinda worked. All they were missing was milk cubes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xNicola_Ghirl1888x Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 A c**t is a c**t whether the c**t is on holiday or not but the biggest c**t move on a holiday I can think of are the lads who pretend to be footballers to get their hole. Normally from some shitehole town in England trying it on about being in Man Utd's reserves & how they're gonna be big. Shite patter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milton75 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 When I was in Prague we went to the same place for breakfast every day. My mates were firing into some full cooked breakfast, but I couldn't face that. It was quite a nice restaurant though, and (bizarrely) was serving chicken consomme from 11am each day. It was properly made and really nice. I would get a bowl of it, and sip the chickeny goodness until my hangover abated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these yanks going 'oh i love how authentic it is' etc etc, utterly shite, stuck to pancakes after that. Took a picture for reference. What pisses me off about that horror show is that Americans will eat it, and then spend the rest of their lives boring every fucker in a hundred mile radius about how terrible "British" food is.

I think we do breakfast really well in Scotland, the worst thing about this is the owners of the restaurant are apparently Scottish. Also the only soft drinks they served was Irn Bru. Its called the Haven, its in Jamaica Plain Boston, menu sounds so much better than it really is. Just had a swatch at their menu. The words 'Scottish Poutine' have already rustled my jimmies as poutine is French Canadian. That's before reading the description. Chips, Cotswold Cheddar and Marmite gravy..... f**k this life.

As a native of Quebec I am deeply offended by this idea. Poutine is not a complicated venture, it needs fries (chips), cheese curds, and gravy. It's sometimes acceptable to add some sort of meat to that such as bacon, or slightly modify the gravy (such as pepper gravy) but as soon as you remove the cheese curds and put different gravy on then it's no longer a true poutine. And it being served in a Scottish Restaurant in Boston just makes it worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
