Why would anyone expect separate mini plates on the original plate? Inception freaks. What next, a mini ramekin within a ramekin to separate beans and the bean sauce? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted April 11 Moderator Share Posted April 11 Bacon: 3 Rashers min - back bacon not streaky, not overcooked either Sausages: 2 min (and none of this chipolata nonsense) - there should always been at least one more bacon rasher than sausages, undercooked anaemic sausages should be avoided Eggs : 1 min, preferably 2 soft centred and not flipped so they are white on both sides. Scrambled only acceptable if not overcooked to the point of dryness Black Pudding: 2 slice min Mushrooms: Preferable but they should be drained of juice before hitting the plate Beans: optional, no ramekins Tomato: optional and not tinned, fresh tomato grilled, 1 and only 1 i.e. two halves Bread: 2 slices of thick shitey whitey (BUTTERED no marg) or replace 1 with fried bread. Good quality proper bread (white) is also acceptable but not essential Potato products: this is an F.E.B. not a wacky gastro fusion dish Items listed in order of importance 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted April 11 Moderator Share Posted April 11 ^^^ apart from the portion size, that looks mainly grim. Tinned toms, get out of here, potato products plural, complete amateur behaviour, the sausages are half cooked, bacon seems grossly overdone, one slice of black pudding on a £30 breakfast... words are failing me. WTF is that random stuff in the middle? The eggs are in danger of breaking the yoke before it gets under the control of the eater due to the ridiculous amount of thin shitey whitey. Thats not an FEB is a nuclear accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) You lot are ruining breakfasts with mushrooms. They have no place on a plate. They should be in a field, left well alone. Fried blood clots also have no place on a plate. Edited April 11 by Tayls 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mic09 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 What annoys me is when you go out around lunchtime after a heavy boozer the night before and the pub only serves all day brunch rather than breakfast. I want hashbrowns and toast, not chips. How hard is it to just stick some hashbrowns on the grill? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
