Another example of what you can do with a limited space in a small hotel and yet come out on top. The Little Queen Pantheon is a tiny bed and breakfast in Rome. it has only got six rooms. (It is also lovely and very centrally situated.) Breakfast consists of…
A small buffet with a reasonable choice of cold and warm dishes, western and eastern. Nothing special, but also nothing wrong, except that I think the butter was old. And for that reason, 3.5/10.
This is a small ’hole in the wall’ — but I did have breakfast there. So, here goes. A choice of banh mi (Vietnamese filled baguettes), coffe and (very limited) tea. The banh mi was very nice, the tea was far too sweet and also with ice (put that down…
Another hotel without a buffet. However, the menu was nicely varied, with a good choice of warm and cold dishes, including vegetarian/vegan options. The egg dishes were perfectly done (and the bacon was very crispy); the croissants were nice and flakey; and the avocado on toast was excellent and the…
I have experienced quite a few disappointments when it comes to US hotel breakfasts outside big cities. However, this was a pleasant surprise. The Sunrise Café where they serve the “normal” breakfast does not have a buffet. Again, a small but nicely varied menu and the food was good. We…
This is, of course a private members club. Nevertheless, I firmly believe in rating all breakfasts, weather accessible to everyone or not. the Harvard does not to have a buffet, and the menu is relatively limited. Nevertheless, what they offer is very nicely prepared and delicious, and there is a…
A luxury breakfast with very polite service as it should be in the biggest hotel in the country. I prefer a light breakfast with plenty of fruit and beans. There were various kinds of meat: lamb, steak, bacon and chicken korma, most of which is produced locally because they have…
Went for breakfast with (as the great Chinese detective Charlie Chan would have said) with “honourable daughter number two” before her journey back to the Antipodes. The setting is lovely, tucked away in a small Galilean village with Mt Tavor looming in the background and the place is done up in…
A small, but excellent and really varied buffet. Very strong on the cold dishes: good choice of vegetables and salads, egg-mayo, and tuna-mayo spreads, also French toast, honey from both bees and dates, and a nice selection of fresh fruit, including fruit salad. The bread was excellent. Only one warm…
I have never seen a non-buffet breakfast that is so buffet-like as this one. If you order the Kafit breakfast from the menu, you get what in essence of amounts to a mini-buffet. And there are different variants to order from as well. Everything fresh and freshly prepared, and very…
