Rizal Park Hotel, Manila, 13 June 2023

Gabriel Stein June 12, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

I am somewhat stumped by this breakfast. On the one hand, as the photos show, it is a fairly substantial and varied buffet. That is good. However, and unusually, it is almost entirely “local“. This in itself is not necessarily bad, although it would be nice if some of the…

Fullerton Hotel, Singapore, 9 June 2023

Gabriel Stein June 10, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

Certainly a very varied breakfast buffet, with both Western and Eastern (Chinese, Malay, Indian), food. Nice choice of fresh fruit and vegetables. The choice of cold cuts was decent, but not spectacular, ditto cheese. An omelette bar and excellent scrambled eggs. They also had ice cream! And the location is…

QANTAS Domestic business lounge, Tullamarine, 6 June 2023

Gabriel Stein June 5, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

A reasonable airport lounge breakfast. Decent choice of bread and fruit and preserves, some warm dishes (which I was not in the mood to try) and a very good salad bar. Also an excellent coffee bar. So, a tad over average, at 5.5/10.

Glover’s Station, St Kilda, VIC, 5 June 2023

Gabriel Stein June 5, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

We had a total of four breakfast here during a visit to Melbourne. It is an unassuming café, with a menu that is surprisingly varied. The number of breakfasts eaten there made it possible to sample quite a few of the choices on the menu. The bagel with smoked salmon…

Cathay Pacific First Class Lounge, Chek Lap Kok, 29 May 2023

Gabriel Stein May 29, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

This is distinctly unimpressed! Very limited choice. In addition, extremely bad service. E.g., no butter available, and repeated mentions still mean about 10 minutes for it to arrive (I assume they didn’t churn it there and then, although I wonder). No one at the coffee/tea bar for a significant and…

Indigo Hotel, Hong Kong, 27 May 2023

Gabriel Stein May 27, 2023 March 19, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog

To paraphrase Winston Churchill (about Clement Attlee): this is a very unassuming breakfast. Indeed, it has a lot to be unassuming about. Basically a menu, supplemented by a choice of toast and croissants, with jam. The scrambled eggs were disappointing in spite of being freshly made; and the ’crispy’ bacon…

Strand Hotel, Visby 23 May 2023

Gabriel Stein May 24, 2023 March 19, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog

The Strand is a really nice hotel with a good breakfast buffet. I would particularly like to mention the perfect scrambled eggs and the excellent chia puddings, with different fruits compotes and jams. The bread was baked at some local bakery, both fresh and delicious. I didn’t have space for…

Paris Baguette, London, 16 May 2023

Gabriel Stein May 19, 2023 March 19, 2024All articles, Travel breakfast blog

Strictly speaking not a travel breakfast, as I only ‘travelled’ from home to High Street Kensington, a distance of about 3 kilometers. But it was a breakfast away from home, so I’ll review it. (Incidentally, this is a chain.) On the one hand, nothing special – sandwiches etc already prepared,…

Il Guelfo Bianco, Florence, Italy, 3 May 2023

Gabriel Stein May 3, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

I am not generally a big fan of Italian breakfasts, they tend to focus on sweet pastries and cakes. So with a little trepidation, I came to breakfast and was pleased to see some chopped tomatoes seasoned in olive oil and oregano, hard boiled eggs, yellow cheese, buffalo mozzarella and…

Little Queen Pantheon, Rome, 23 April 2023

Gabriel Stein April 23, 2023 March 17, 2024Travel breakfast blog

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…
