csabo Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Toasted everything bagel with Philly light creme cheese and smoked Norwegian salmon with sliced shallots and a dash of black pepper. Coffee. Though yesterday I had a poached egg nested in an avocado half with hollandaise sauce as I was celebrating some good news. Above all homemade.

Crossy Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Weekdays - 4.30AM. Mug of tea (no milk or sugar), small bowl of Frosties with real milk (makes up for the milk and sugar in the tea), glass of orange juice (not fresh). Watch the Farm Channel with Wifey. More tea when I get to the office at 6.30. Yes, I'm a Brit. Saturday - Tea, chicken on a stick (2) from the lady next door. Sunday - Nice greasy-spoon fry-up. Bacon, tomatoes, fried eggs (3 guinea eggs), fried left-over spuds (or hash brown if no leftovers), fried slice, whatevers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Don't eat breakfast, so breaking fast is generally lunch. That would be some sort of a fruit smoothie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tutsiwarrior Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 fer breakfast usually whatever's left over from the day before...if suitable mix in with some instant noodles (like leftover stir fry)...cold carrot salad/cole slaw with flat bread, curried beans, spag bog, chili, etc...bought a load of miso paste from foodland in BKK and use that fer the instant noodles (leave the flavoring packets out), the residual miso soup is a real winner in the a.m.... if upstairs has got some khao thom on the go then will have some of that...rarely have eggs, toast and etc...coffee sometimes if I got some milk around left over from making yogurt... if there's any vodka left over from the night before usually make meself a drink...beer misses the point besides tasting like shit anyway, a good way to ruin yer day...

chezy86 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Living with a Thai it's usually something with boiled rice, chicken, seafood, pork, beef occasionally congee. But still get a hankering for bacon sausage and eggs so have that when I feel like it. Don't bother with cereals any more just full of sugar most of it.

sandemara Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Variety is key for me. I'm sure I'd be happy with e rotation between a bowl of muesli, yogurt, fresh (seasonal) fruits and juice, or a bowl of weetbix, hot water, cream and seasonal fruits. But I enjoy a congee (rice soup), or anything derived from a traditional English breakfast - parts of or the whole shebang, with toast - bacon eggs, sausage, smoked cod or salmon/trout, livfer and bacon (yum!), any offal forms, baked beans and any toast spreads available. All accompsnied by lashings of tea or properly-brewedr Italian or French coffee (nix to American!) with cream and pastries to follow. Whatever mood takes me, my wife and I can throw somehing delightful together. It's an important meal for us. I must say, I don't bother with hash browns or hot chips, because that would be overdoing it. However Irish potato cakes or Latkes should feature w/sour cream. I've also been partial to Dutch-Indonesian or Malaysian breakfast feasts as well for yonks. I find large meals awash with alcohol too soon before sleep most disagreeable and uncomfortable. Lunches is a more civilised time of day for banquets and rollicking socialising. My weight has been stable, 70-75kg for years. My only need for a hospital stay in the last 40 years (now aged 70) was for a vasectomy, so I think I'm lucky or doing something right. I don't eat a lot of red meat. Veges, greens, salads and fruit predominate. I also avoid commercial salamis, but will eat smallgoods I've smoked or prepared myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie36 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Smashed avocado on sourdough and a tall skinny latte is another favourite if I'm passing Holey Artisan that morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b17 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Well, I start off with a glass of water with a few teaspoons of Bragg's Apple cider in it. After half an hour, I eat a bowl of Quaker oats with bananas and apples cut into slices, along with a small amount of honey. Then, I brew up some fresh Doi Chang coffee, and enjoy two cups of that, black. On Saturday's, I substitute the Quaker oats for a Spanish omelette, served with two slices of rye bread.

sandemara Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I failed to mention my inclination to variety also includes the joys of Scandanavian style breakfast fare - gorgeous cheeses with crispbreads or sourdough or other breads (toasts) along with pickle choices. These lend themselves to either lagers or dark malty (Guinness? yes) for the sheer joy of it. Also some Middle-eastern soups/ stews and pastries along with the unique coffee can be to die for as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeptic7 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 At home, usually fresh fruit or home made fruit smoothie, cornflakes with corn "milk" and a sliced banana...or toasted wheat bread with jam. Always a fresh brewed pot o coffee. Away from home...kao tum pak "jay"...vegetarian rice soup (porridge) with soy sauce and plenty of dried chilies! And coffee, of course.

Sumarianson Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I can't find the things I used to eat in London for breakfast ie. Fresh Irish recipe sausages, proper fresh smoked bacon, ( not the cheap and fattening streaky stuff). Scotch eggs from M&S which was my local shop. You can get the Richmond Irish recipe sausages frozen and expensively here but I never really favoured their recipe when it was fresh in London. Now I get up late and sleep early (in the morning) so breakfast is no longer an issue. I go straight for lunch, Japaneese curry with rice ready meal CP, pork balls with rice and veg, Salmon soups with rice in the micro. Everything I eat here is expensive for Thai standards and not particularly good for me. A treat is a nice ham and salad club sandwich fro O Bon Pain. Bacon and eggs with toast on occasions with a nice mug of rosy lee, English breakfast of course. why doesn't anyone make a good Irish or English sausage, or black pudding here in Thailand?????? I'm famished now!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the late Colin Dresner had his George & Dragon restaurant on Soi 6. His menu had the name of the item followed by a description, even the breakfasts. One of his breakfast menu choices was "The Jockey's Breakfast: Piss and a smoke. Help yourself." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mianoinadme Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Usually cereal with a lot of fruit, one or two cups of coffee. But I don't mind to eat fried eggs with a fresh bread, but not American toast. Once in a while, sticky rice with ripe mangoes is a great alternative.

Araiwa Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I start the day with a big cup of coffee. After that a glass of water with some apple cider. Food is (s)low carbon and high protein: Broccoli, spinach, mixed vegetables, mushrooms, onions, grilled chicken, 3 eggs. All cooked with some pepper, salt, fish sauce and plenty of chili. Sometimes I just order SomTam and gai yang from the small restaurant across the highway. And sometimes I just have a protein drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally I do....We'll eat about 7:30-8:00 then again about 2:00-3:00....That's about it for me......Sometimes a small fruit later, maybe once in awhile a slice of sourdough bread with some water if feeling really hungry.... My wife usually eats some dinner with the girls..... In my solo days I would go somewhere between one to four meals a day depending on schedule demands & start times.....Maybe have a banana or yogurt on the run....One day a small amount & the next day everything in sight.... Some inactive Sundays could be a water only day, just to reset.....But the wife makes that difficult by making-serving meals & won't try herself....

bazza73 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Orange juice. Two small bananas. One slice of toast and Vegemite. Australians will understand this as a necessity. Pineapple. Twice a week, poached eggs on toast. Coffee later, about 10.30 am at my favourite shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Coffee... a whole pot. Every day. Sometimes toast, sometimes a croissant. And sometimes a glass of OJ. Lately added prune juice for the 'unplugging'. Sometimes a bag of fresh pa thong ko artery blockers if someone is passing the right stall at the just the right time of the morning. Sometimes jok with an egg, pig bits and ginger in it if someone is passing the right stall at the just the right time of the morning. Occasionally I will have a bowl of oatmeal when I remember that I am supposed to be looking after my body, maybe once a week... or after eating a whole bag of pa thong ko by myself. Once a week, usually Sunday, we do a fry up; eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, kippers, tomatoes, home fries (English) or eggs, bacon with sausage patties and pancakes or eggs, biscuits & gravy (American)... then lie around like a beached whale.

As a side note to what I wrote earlier about this.... I read a report recently that indicated it's healthier to take in your daily calories in one 8 hour period, then let the body do it's processing..... It stated a constant glut of food in the body actually makes it harder for the body to function well, leading to other problems over time...It takes away some normal bodily timing of cycles.... Seemed good to me as I'm already doing this.... Bodily cycles is one reason breakfast is considered the most important meal of the day... Makes sense....

williet98248 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I make my own muesli and have that with frozen raspberries or blueberries topped with 100 grams of yoghurt filled up with non fat milk. Once or twice a week I will have some bacon cooked with a scrambled egg on a piece of nine grain toast. Occasionally I will make it into a tortilla wrap. When out I ask for one egg fried, some bacon and a piece of toast. I always eat the garnish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
