Ok, it is a bit unfair to show some of the breakfast already eaten, but I forgot to take pictures beforehand. It certainly is difficult to judge a breakfast in these days of the COVID-19 pandemic. No buffet, just a set menu to choose from. That tends to skew both…
With the post-pandemic arrangements, there isn’t very much you can write about breakfasts, at least in Scotland. They are all pretty similar, you order at the table, either basic (toast, preserves et cetera) or the “full Scottish”. So the difference boils down to service. Today’s breakfast was a reasonable average,…
Unsurprisingly, another instance of having to order breakfast with no buffet. This is what we will have to get used to for some time. Again, a reasonable choice including the full cooked Scottish breakfast. On the slightly negative side, they brought you a cup of coffee or hot water for…
It is a new world in the post-pandemic era. One sadly missed feature is the breakfast buffet. That being said, the breakfast at The New Club was very pleasant. Substantial choice, including a ‘full Scottish’ cooked breakfast (which one of my companions chose), yoghurts, fruit, pastries et cetera. The service…
The Van Der Valk hotel in Tilburg is relatively new, opened around a year and a half ago. So what could we expect from this breakfast? As you enter the food area there is a most comprehensive selection of breads, rolls and pastries of all kinds. As it is Carnival time…
A very pleasant surprise. This charming hotel offers an excellent breakfast. Good choice of bread, nice spread of cold cuts (meat and fish) as well as cheese and vegetables. The tea is looseleaf and there is a small but adequate choice of hot dishes as well. In addition, the quality…
A decent, if unspectacular, breakfast. Nice choice of warm dishes, a good spread of vegetables and fruit, as well as cold cuts and cheeses (including some local). However, the bread selection was disappointing and the tea (one kind only) was of course only bags. 5/10.
A good variety of cereals with yoghurt and milk as well as fruits in their juice. Sliced ham and salami of ordinary quality. Sweet spreads individually packed as well as the cheese. Definitely hard boiled eggs. Coffee is excellent, orange juice good. Toast comes in wheat and whole grain. Overall…
Another example of why the Swedish hotel breakfast is so good. The hotel was perfectly adequate, but nothing special yet the breakfast was excellent. Good choice of bread, nice spread of cold cuts, plenty of vegetables. Waffles of course and warm dishes. Only one type of cheese, admittedly, but a…
Yet another very nice and varied buffet. As befits a more cosmopolitan city, the Western/Eastern balance was more even. The bread is still somewhat disappointing, and the fact that the tea is only bags, and only two kinds at that, is also unimpressive. On the other hand, a good spread…
