Sausagges & bacon, (very) soft boiled eggs, ice cream, noodles, pains aux chocolate, yogurt, roti prata, pancakes. Never tried dahl but that's just because I don't like beans/lentis/legumes of any sort! I can eat almost anything for breakfast.

Other people's breakfasts are what interest me, it's when I'm travelling that I enjoy breakfasts, croissants in Paris, cold meats and cheese in Germany, noodles in China or roti canai in Malaysia but the best breakfast is the Sri Lankan breakfast - hoppers, dhal, chilli something (meat, vegetables), roti, milk rice, it's the best way to start the day I have to disagree, breakfast food is not what I’m about, my breakfasts are not for comfort, they’re just something to eat before I got to work.
