Strangely, the restaurant in this hotel in the far northwest of the United States is Mediterranean, or more specifically Middle Eastern-themed. In addition, there is no buffet, just a menu. This means that you will not be able to have any of the “normal Western“ breakfast, e.g., toast. That being…
Loose-leaf tea. A samovar. A very funny sign about coffee. (Top left picture.) This started well and continued better. An excellent buffet, which, once again shows how you can combine what seems fairly limited in size with a very wide choice. So, plenty of vegetables, different types of cheeses, lots…
There is a waffle iron so that you can prepare your own waffles, something very much appreciated. Good choice of vegetables and sandwich spreads, although the pre-sliced cheese is standard. I find herring at the breakfast table strange, but apparently there are many who like it. The bacon looked crispy,…
An excellent buffet. Good choice of bread, vegetables and fruit. Also a nice sample of different cheeses, again, both white and yellow. Very nice scrambled eggs and tasty Polish sausages. Also plenty of condiments and cereal. On the negative side, one of the coffee machines was faulty, and, more seriously,…
Very good choice. Salmon, herring, meatballs and potatoes in the buffet. Taste-wise, nothing to write home about, certainly not the scrambled eggs, which tasted as if they were made with powdered eggs (highly likely!). The juice is standard factory made and so watered it looked like a fresh urine sample.…
A very nice spread. Plenty of cheese, hard as well as soft, and also different egg concoctions. Lots of vegetables and good choice of fresh fruit, cut and uncut. Decent bread choice, cereals and fish. The orange juice was concentrate, but the red grapefruit was fresh. Tea was bags only,…
Very boring dining room, the same as the hotel reception. Extra point for buns/biscuits to accompany the coffee and for a piece of brie complementing the usual boring pre-sliced cheese. Major minus for the scrambled eggs, which were more of a chopped-up omelette than a proper scramble. The bread was…
Excellent scrambled eggs and I am sure that the locally produced ham is very tasty for those who eat meat/pork. Good juice, and good home-baked bread. The rest of the breakfast was mediocre, with two kinds of bland cheese and almost nonexistent choice for vegans. It may have been possible…
A lovely breakfast, freshly prepared, choice between full English or continental, but with one of our party suffering from a number of severe allergies, also the option of a tailor-made breakfast. The fruit salad consisted of 14 different fruits (we counted them!); and there were three types of toast (cinnamon-raisin,…
Situated on the shores of the Sea of Galilee is the kibbutz run Ma’agan Eden hotel. I was invited by a visiting friend to join her for breakfast. The breakfast place resembles the dining room in the communal kibbutz, self service on trays. There is a lovely view over the Sea…
