Followed by toast, butter and marmalade or a good preserve. At least two cups of English breakfast tea with milk and sugar. Additions I like fried liver and toasted Soda bread with butter and orange juice. I'm not adverse to a smoke mackerel or kidneys in side dishes, in fact, why not both. Gentleman's relish is also nice on the toast if you want to go savoury as is either marmite or bovril or beef bone marrow. We are starting to reach full Victorian and Edward's heights with the bone marrow and or dripping. Hash browns, bubble and squeek, potato cakes or sautéed potato, can also be added
IMO, the full American is superior to the full English.Though I've read variations of what's in a full English, what is it in your English view?

That's gotta be cultural delicacies some of it, people not brought up in England wouldn't stomach a few things, I know I wouldn't. I take the best bits from that and add Canadian stuff and maybe a few Murican things as well for funsies and boom ya got a decent brekkie.

That's A LOT for a breakfast, m8
Originally posted by RobtardIn the old days it would be laid out on the side in the dining room in covered bowls and a gentleman would serve himself. The core is Bacon, Sausage, Egg, grilled tomato, Fried Slice, but the others all fit a gentleman's breakfast in England.
