Parador de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain, 15 March 2025

Gabriel Stein March 15, 2025 March 15, 2025Travel breakfast blog

There is an interesting feature at this breakfast. There are no implements for taking any of the food at the buffet. Instead, you get wooden tongs on your table, and have to remember to bring them each time you go to get food. We wondered if this was a remnant…

täCH, Madrid Airport, Spain, 14 March 2025

Gabriel Stein March 14, 2025 March 14, 2025All articles, Travel breakfast blog

There is good and there is bad. This is a small airport hotel. The buffet has a decent choice, with some warm dishes. Unfortunately, the quality is rather uneven. The bread is nice. But the cold cuts and the cheese are fairly tasteless. The tortilla was unimpressive, although the small…

Villa Dagmar, Stockholm, Sweden, 17 February 2025

Gabriel Stein February 20, 2025 March 15, 2025All articles, Travel breakfast blog

The environment: Surprisingly comfortable oasis – luxurious and elegant – in a nice part of Stockholm. Comfortable chairs and conducive to conversation. Staff: Friendly greeting on arrival. Later somewhat difficult to order. Correct, but weak knowledge about the menu and its contents. The food: Nicely presented in, as already noted, a…

BA Club World, 12 January 2025

Gabriel Stein January 13, 2025 January 13, 2025Travel breakfast blog

Strangely, I don’t think I have ever reviewed the BA BusinessClass breakfast. As with my recent review on First Class, I am fully aware of the problems of cooking in the air. I will therefore restrict myself to saying that the fruit platter was very nice, as was the granola.…

dusitD2 Kenz, Dubai, UAE, 11 January 2025

Gabriel Stein January 11, 2025 January 13, 2025Travel breakfast blog

Given how much I you usually tout the virtues of the Middle Eastern breakfast, this was a bit of a disappointment. It’s a medium-sized buffet, with a decent selection of warm and cold dishes, as well as an egg bar. On the plus side they have shakshouka but it wasn’t…

BA First Class, 10 January 2025

Gabriel Stein January 11, 2025 January 11, 2025Travel breakfast blog

I do not often fly First Class. (In fact, with regards to British Airways, I don’t think I ever will again. But that is not because of the breakfast.) However, for various reasons I did so on this very short trip, and since it is eight years ago since I…

Hotel Adlon, Stockholm, Sweden, 3 December 2024

Gabriel Stein December 3, 2024 December 3, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog

I was rather disappointed by this breakfast. Partly, this is because I am spoiled by the general excellence of Swedish and indeed Nordic hotel breakfasts. (The average rating for Swedish hotel breakfasts on this blog is 6.6, compared with global average of 5.7.) This one was merely all right. A…

Hotel Ruth, Stockholm, Sweden, 12 October 2024

Gabriel Stein October 13, 2024 October 13, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog

Unbelievably charming och personal, with an incredibly good, varied and delicious breakfast. I have breakfasted in many places in the world, and this one is one of my top 3 – ever! (The other two are in Sun City in South Africa, and in Singapore.) Excellent variation, with pleasant and…

Hotel de la Coupole, Sa Pa, Vietnam, 21 September 2024

Gabriel Stein September 21, 2024 September 21, 2024Travel breakfast blog

It is safe to say that the moment I walked into this amazing French colonial style hotel (at 3:30 am!), I thought, ‘they will have a great breakfast’. Fortunately, my instant impression was fully borne out. This is a very nice, very large buffet. Vietnamese and western only. Plenty of…

Gloucester Luk Kwok Hotel, Hong Kong, Hong Kong S.A.R., 14 September 2024

Gabriel Stein September 14, 2024 September 14, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog Gloucester Lu Kwok

A fairly basic buffet, heavier on the Chinese side than on the western. Plenty of warm dishes, not so much on the cold side, which was mainly a small cheese selection and some vegetables. No cold cuts, no cold fish, limited fruit selection. The scrambled eggs were decent. The bread…
