    Hi, I have watched quite a few of your vids on the breakfast meal and they all come from restaurants. the fry up breakfast is a working class meal and you need to go to working class cafes that truckers use with the meals cooked by Englishmen in England, Scotsmen in Scotland etc as there is a difference in their breakfast items. you would not go to a chinese, indian french restaurant and have the food cooked by another countries national and expect to get the true taste of the dish being cooked. The problem is there is now very few English run cafes and even less English run restaurant.

    • @capitalb5889

      @doloresmyatt9737 Год назад

      @@capitalb5889 yes there are a lot of low grade cafes but if you are using them day to day you will go to the ones that use quality items eg free range eggs, Wiltshire bacon, Cumberland sausage etc quality uncut loaf from a bakers. ask your viewers for suggestions on where to find them. I would not order fish and chips from a pub or restaurant again I would go to a well recommend fish and chip shop by checking goggle as there are plenty who have won awards up and down the country.

    Some people complain about the hashbrowns being American. Well if that's the case for these "purists", perhaps they'll be happy giving up their chips as well. They can just have fish, instead of fish and chips. Potatoes are native to the Americas, not the the UK or Europe.

  • @davidsworld5837
    @davidsworld5837 Год назад +1

    1st £14,30 the £1.10 for the black pudding on the £10.45 you may ask why if you are going to add just go for the £14.95 top one with a lot more on it.
    2nd on the eggs did look smaller. when you 1st see the meal it just does not have as much an impact as the 1st place.
    its nice to see own made items but i would prefer the bacon slices to belly pork but £18
    you could had the bigger breakfast at the 1st place then the prices would be the same.
    I would bet then you would pic the 1st place for more items on the plate

    Breakfast 2 wasn't breakfast - more look you said, brunch. So it would have to be number one for me. I do loke the idea of having belly pork in a brunch, but there again I have had steak as part of a brunch in the past. It was kind of sad that black pudding was not included as part of the traditional breakfast and for northerners no potato cakes, Yes breakfasts are definitely regional.

    You have to have sausages and bacon as part of a breakfast. When i saw the thumbnail i was expecting you to be talking about hash browns! Personally i'm not a fan of black pudding or tomatoes and toast i can take or leave ( I can make toast at home), so when these are offered as part of a listed breakfast i ask about a swap. More often than not i get an extra sausage in place of the black pudding, and some hashbrowns instead of the toast. The tomatoes are the negotiator so if i get a quizzical look at the request i say well you can also drop the tomatoes!

    Going to your other breakfast meals? White pudding and Black pudding are basically the same. Except the black version is made with blood and the White isn’t.
    I haven’t really seen you have a proper Full English. It should come with beans, eggs, sausage, bacon, fried bread, black pudding, tinned tomato, maybe fresh grilled if you prefer, mushrooms, bubble and squeak. (No hash brown). Toast on the side, and a nice strong cup of tea. Sourdough bread should stay out of it.
    The Full English historically was for builders, market traders, lorry drivers, taxi drivers etc. Today it’s gone too “ up market “ for me. It has gone the same way as pie, mash and liquor and stewed eels. Not everyone wants to eat fancy copies of traditional meals.

    You know the stewed tomatoes is a good idea as they are tangy.
