I had to stop myself from taking more pictures. But I probably have not covered everything there is. So, in summary, a fantastic breakfast. Needless to say, Western food as well as East Asian (at least Chinese, Korean and Japanese). Lots of fruit, vegetables, bread of many different varieties, cold…
As I have written in the past, the one meal where I consider Western food essential (and I freely admit this is a very subjective view) is breakfast. Here, there was a very nice breakfast buffet, quite extensive, but almost exclusively Chinese. The one concession to the west walls white…
I am not sure what I had expected here, but the result was considerably better. A very large spread of both Western and Chinese food. On the plus side, lots of different bread, the tea was all loose-leaf, and a very nice egg bar. The fruit was sparse (two types…
This is a Shangri-La. Breakfast should be excellent. And it certainly is. A very nice spread of warm and cold dishes (of course), Western food as well as East Asian. Perhaps a little weak on the bread, but two types of honey compensate and the egg bar, the cold cuts…
After the rather sparse breakfast we had at the Bolor Hotel two days ago, our chef, Sugar, decided that she could do much better. She certainly did! A lovely cheese omelette, nice sausages, a pleasant range of condiments, juices, yoghurt etc. Everything cooked on a tiny little stove seen in…
A fairly sparse breakfast – all pictured – but the salami was decent and the tea was warm. And that’s about it. It gets 3/10 because I’ve give 2.5 to worse.
A small, but surprisingly varied breakfast buffet. Different kinds of bread, condiments, some nice cold cuts and plenty of vegetables and cereals. Extra points for the fish roe (I dare not say from a sturgeon). A mixture of local, East Asian and western food. Nice choice of fruit as well.…
Today, I had one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. The buffet was fantastic: obviously local (Vietnamese), but also a choice of Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Western food. The bread justified the saying “Vietnam has the best baguettes east of Paris“. Plenty of hot dishes of all kinds,…
(Today happens to be the 75th anniversary of Vietnam’s of independence in 1945. Amazing time to be here.) A nice buffet breakfast, somewhat balanced towards Asian food, but enough European to satisfy those, like me prefer that cuisine for breakfast – although I sampled some of the local dishes as…
I normally prefer western breakfasts, the one area where western cuisine – in my opinion – is superior to others. But the egg fried noodles looked delicious and I opted for them instead. This is a small airport hotel with a handful of rooms. Obviously, there would be no breakfast…
