Do you have chips with a FEB 

For me, this is a big no no. Waffles, hash browns, rosti (ramekin boy is back again). yes. NEVER chips. 

That makes an FEB, a Brunch.

Working away down south years ago I was booked into a pub with accommodation, but no breakfast included.

Anyway went for food in the evening and on the specials menu was all day full english breakfast, I asked for the all day breakfast and requested that it be served at 7.00am the following morning - they looked at me like I was a piece of shit!

£50 brekkie (for two)

Thats actually a standard price at most 5 stars in London. Even the Hyatt Birmingham is £40 for 2 breakfasts and thats only a 4 star. 

We paid £32.50 each for breakfast at one hotel recently so £50 isn't that outrageous.

Was an amazing buffet, although wasted on me as I can't eat that much in one go.

Good question, thanks for asking.

2 sausage, 2 egg, 2 bacon, 2 hashers, 2 slices of toast, 2 slices of lightly friend bread (sometimes), a ramekin of non sloppy beans and maybe a grilled tomato for garnish. 

Mushrooms and black pudding in the bin. 

Hot drink and glass of juice.

Usually followed by a big poo about 30 mins later.

Didn't mean it that way. Apologies if it came across as such.

Alright breakfast boy. I bet you get the Guardian through a green juice squirted through the old ISDN line.

Yep. And Jeremy Corbyn buttered my toast. 

Come on, I was just commenting on a previous post. I would much rather a greasy spoon for a fiver any day.

Does your butler sample each item before you eat it just in case it’s poisoned?

Article this morning on the BBC about the disappearance of Little Chef's from our roads. They mentioned their "famous" Olympic Brekkie.

Looking at it, if they'd invested in ramekins, thy might still be trading.

Last nights dinner (don't like eating lots at breakfast unless it's very late).

Of course, I bought black pudding then forgot to get it out the fridge 🙄

One for the boring thread, but there used to be a little chef by me in Halesowen when I was a kid, on Manor Way off the M5. I don’t think I ever went in, but as a thick kid, the name fascinated me. I imagined one little chef cooking for everyone.

It must have been closed for over 30 years now, but the derelict sign is still there and every time I drive past it I think something interesting like “That’s where that poor little chef used to work”.

Would bang 👍

Seems strange that I'm desperately trying to pick fault whilst at the same time thinking **** hell I'd smash that 😂 what sausages are those? That'd probably all I've got

Further down the same road there was another Little Chef, just past Hagley. It’s now the Fig and Favour, used to be good for a FEB

The toast needs some good buttering that it presumably got, the egg is looking dangerously on the edge of being over cooked but could be nicely over easy, plate is a bit too decorative for an FEB. No Guinness in sight.
