M&S Full English ,Veggie, high protein smoky bean egg pot breakfast and Halloumi hot breakfast review

While I was at M&S on the 19/02/2021, I spotted the Full English Breakfast and new high protein smoky bean and egg pot breakfast at @marksandspencer

It is interesting how the Full English has a shelf life of two days (to be used by 22/02/2021) with a cooked egg.

I happened to be at M&S on the 22/02/2021 and it was reduced so I got it as I was curious to see if the egg was still fresh on the use by date so I had it for tea that afternoon.

According to the instructions, you remove the lid and replace it loosely and microwave for 2 minutes which I did.

As I wasn't sure if the plastic label was microwable, I removed the label but left the clear window on otherwise it wouldn't be a lid if it was open.

After microwaving it, the contents looked as good as if it was freshly served, the bacon looked moist but the thing I was interested in most was the egg!

To my surprise after two minutes in the microwave, the poached egg white was still tender and the yolk was runny. 

The beans which I was dreading were amazing because they were different to the overly sweet M&S canned beans and tasted like my favourite St Nichols beans.

Basically everything was delicious including the sausage and rasher of bacon so I got my greasy spoon craving satisfied without the greasyness.

As well as the Full English, there is a Veggie breakfast which I also tried however the Full English was better as it was not as sweet.

After the successful launch of the full and veggie breakfast, the halloumi hot was later introduced.

The halloumi heated up nicely in the microwave and the rest was consistently the same eg the beans, mushrooms and spinach.

Last but not least is the NEW high protein smoky bean egg pot breakfast which I had my eye on for a while because I love spicy beans. Since I saw canned refried beans at M&S, it has always made me crave for some spicy beans hence the smoky bean pot.

To be honest, it was really tasty because the smoky beans had a spicy kick as well as smokiness, and the eggs were nicely dressed in sour cream and yoghurt.

[Restaurant Review] All you can eat breakfast at Toby Carvery for £4.89

I love breakfast so the all you can eat breakfast for £4.89 at Toby Carvery was really captivating.
If you are having Quorn sausages, this must be ordered when you pay.

At the breakfast bar, all these items should be there.
Bacon, Pork Sausages, Free Range Fried Eggs (v), NEW Hash Browns (v), Baked Beans (v),
Plum Tomatoes (v), Handmade Potato, Bacon, Cheese & Onion Hash, Freshly Roasted Mushrooms (v), Breakfast Gravy, Breakfast Yorkshire Puddings - Our famous homemade Yorkies with roasted onion and bacon bits, Toast (v) - With a selection of jams and spreads and Quorn™ Sausages (v) - Available on request.




Got there at around 10am and it was not very busy however at the breakfast bar, certain items were not refilled until later so you have to leave room for other bits.






I was looking forward to the hash but it was in a lot of oil so were the mushrooms.
The breakfast Yorkies are different in the sense that they have bits of bacon and onion in them and the breakfast gravy has a hint of tomato in it.

Overall, I would recommended the breakfast because you can try everything for an affordable price which is unlimited but some improvements are needed.
Some of the the items were in a lot of oil and the sausages were over done.
The gravy ladle was too hot to handle as it got heated at the breakfast bar.
The tea is bottomless but again you have to wait for them to refill the tea bags.

[Review] Breakfast at Debenhams Cafe, Eastbourne

Debenhams Cafe has been in Eastbourne since I don't know when but sadly quite a few stores are closing down nationwide including Eastbourne.

At Debenhams Cafe they serve breakfast, lunch in a traditional British Cafeteria style where you order what you see.



 Photo taken the previous day with bubble on the left.



As they are closing down, I went one last time for breakfast.

Previously dined here in my younger years but sadly I didn't take photos.

I was late so many items had run out including the bubble which was served the previous day so I settled for 4 items with an extra black pudding.

Overall, it was your usual breakfast fare with a lovely view of town through those wooden pane windows.

The blurred edges of the vintage glass transom windows added to the ambiance which you won't find in modern eateries.

Sainsbury's Express Porridge Apple & Cinnamon 10x36g

I loved the Apple & Cinnamon porridge by Sainsburys.
They were instant by adding hot water and it wasn't too sweet.
You are supposed to add milk but I prefer adding water so that it doesn't taste too milky.

McDonalds: Singapore

McDonalds in Singapore

I was quite surprised they offer Jasmine tea as one of their beverages, and since Singapore is quite multicultural chicken is quite a popular item there.
Even for breakfast they have crispy chicken with eggs!
I have tried cinammon melts before which are delicious and here they have blueberry melts as well!
