The basics of a fry up are: bacon, eggs, sausage.

 

Thais eat all 3.

 

Thai food is known to be highly nutritious.

 

I therefore conclude that a fry up is nutritious.

 

If only we could get the Geordie specialities Brown Ale Bread and Deep Fried Mars Bars!!

 

[[i had so much food on my mind I posted this in the blood pudding thread by misatke]]

The Wild Chicken on soi 13 ( 2nd road end ) has a very good Ham & Chesse omlet accompanied by real Hash browns, toast and large coffee for 105 baht.

It's on Soi Post Office (Soi 13/1) not Soi 13, across from the Malibu.

I tried this in Edinburgh. It's pretty good.

 

This is what it looks like.

They actually deep fry a Mars bar?! What keeps the thing from melting into sludge?

 

Here, just answered my own question:

 

"A deep-fried Mars Bar is an ordinary Mars Bar fried in a type of batter used in the British Isles for fish, black and white pudding, sausage, and often haggis. The Mars Bar is typically chilled before use to prevent it from melting into the frying fat, though a cold Mars Bar can fracture when heated.

 

The dish was initially served at selected chip shops in Scotland as a novelty item, but was never a mainstream item. Since various mass media have reported on the practice since the mid 1990s, in part as an ironic commentary on urban Scotland's notoriously unhealthy diet,[1] the popularity of the dish has spread."

Mmmmm OK but I think I'd rather try the grasshoppers before the deep fried mar bars :)

Great breakie at Jimmy Mac's on soi 6 any time of day 95Bts!! Watch the girls in operation opposite as well to pass the time!!

I've had both. They're both fine. I suppose the grasshoppers are better for you.

It's already been mentioned but i have to agree, it's hard to beat the Sailor Bar, Soi 8, Beach road end.

50 Baht great value !

And their drink prices ! Sang-som +soda 20 Baht !

[monochromeman 41]

I've never actually had a deep fried mars bar although I've seen them in Newcastle area. And when I lived in Clapham, London my local chippie sold them with a premium price to the middle class clientele who fancied sampling a bit of working class culture.

 

Brown ale bread is nice, though.

 

As for brekkie I had set number 5 today: chips, beans, sausage, egg, bacon and a top mug of milky coffee plus toast

[Zeus 56]

I haven't been in town for over a year, but I remember a great value place on 2nd road:

 

The Boat Bakery - I think american breakfast was 40 baht ( 2 eggs, bacon or ham, toast w/butter & jam, coffee)

 

There are much better places for overall quality ( Sportsman), but this place was a real deal for a daily morning(or noon) meal.

 

Thai food was also reasonably priced.

Tried most of the recommendations for english breakfast and really don't care much for all that bulk so early in the morning. I will do the Sportsman's for breakfast once during my trip.

 

I would much rather enjoy a thai breakfast. Any recommendations for a good thai breakfasts?

My favorite breakfast if I'm very Hungry is Robins Nest across from Chabba Hut hotel on soi Buchow. The 199 baht all you can eat is always freshly made with unlimited Italian coffee and OJ. Not cheap, but delicious.

Are you talking about Robin's Nest on Soi Diana?

[stewartgpr 0]

You can have breakfast at the 2 Kiss restaurants (Dolphin and opposite Mike's Shopping Mall both on 2nd Rd) 24/7.

 

If you're up early I recommend Greg's Kitchen also on 2nd Rd.

 

 

i second Gregs on second road just before soi 6, i have been there on many occations , great portions and love the huge Tea pot as a hangover cure ,

 

walk 20 steps to soi 6 for desert

Greg's food is OK but it's way over priced. Check out Tropical Bert's across the street from Greg's. Big difference in price and the quality is the same. I used to eat at Greg's frequently but I stopped going as his prices are over the top.

I'm sure that's what he means. Robin's Nest just west of the Soi Diana/Soi Bhuakow intersection. Good made to order breakfasts. That place and Witherspoons just around the corner on Soi Bhuakow aren't the cheapest but very good quality English breakfasts IMO.
