Breakfast

I've been meaning to write about the breakfast, as it is actually one of my better meals of the day. Not that the other food is bad, but its an opportunity for me to have a bit of balance.

I went in for the first time a couple days ago and at first thought, it was just a buffet... small... about 20 different items, but gooe enough for a breakfast. Fresh juices, an omelette station, some pastries, a big chunk of ham, and some chaffing dishes full of assorted items.

I started on the right side and worked myself to the left.... chicken sausages, breakfast steaks, bacon, grilled tomatoes, then sauteed mushrooms and ... baked beans... wow.. .this is pretty heavy food for breakfast... then it hit me... English breakfast!!

The sauteed mushrooms were quite good. unfortunately, that looks like the dish that changes from day to day. There were veggie quiches one day, cream of spinach another, and today there were butter boiled carrots.

I've tried the orange juice, which was a little different than you'd expect, possibly they don't use valencias, the watermelon juice wasn't as sweet as I'm used to, maybe from the standpoint that I usually have the variation that we get at Mexican restaurants like in San Mateo.

today I finally had a hankering for a pastry, maybe because I've been working out in the mornings and my body might be craving some carbs.

either way, breakfast is a nice way to start out the day here.. I tend to rush it as part of my morning schedule, but it's nice to sit down, even for 10-15 minutes and have a meal.
