Hey, that is a big issue, and no laughing matter. I'm a huge fan of the ham and cheese croissant, but damned if i could be bothered actually making one in the morning, let alone baking the damn thing from scratch. Much less, making the cheese organically, or making a nice organic naturally cured pig based product to go with it. Pigs..natures wonder animal. Not the feedlot variety, but captain cookers, the grazing pigs. Health wise, well-the information is so conflicting as to be ridiculous-a diabetic, should avoid fats, white bread/processed food,simple sugars generally etc. Someone with kidney disease, supposedly, should avoid high phosphorous diets, bizarrely, most things, are bad in that respect to, whole grains, oatmeal, almost everything you thought might be generally healthy, are out in a low phosphorous/kidney ailment diet. Friggin baffling. So, should you eat out for breakfast, or make your own breakfast? Good question. We report...you decide.
Oh, My breakfast is simple. Just a bowl of noodle, or some porridge with an egg/apple. BTW, I am Chinese. I don't kown how to make/cook cheese. I eat bread without cheese. usually, with a cup of milk.
Well, what can i tell you, you have a great handle. And lets face it, nobody truly wants to learn how to cook cheese, except that it is friggin delicious. It's cheese-it requires no cooking. Pray thee do tell, you eat bread with milk, a typical fried bread, (except, your saying, you drink it seperately, and do not fry it )as the french do in olive oil, or you actually eat your bread , fried in a bit of milk, also as the french do, with a different oil? Or non of the above? I am fascinated by cuisine culture, or the culture of cuisine.
Oh, no. We don't fry the the bread any more or mix it with milk. I don't like it. Because the bread is dry, I need some drink. For example, eat one piece of bread and drink some milk. Sorry, english poor. Have you got my meaning? ____________________________________________ www.BudgetGadgets.com Gadget retail at wholesale price, FREE SHIPPING.

Oh, right, well that's logical. One would normally only soak/drizzle milk on bread for say, a trifle or crouton, crisps it up when grilling/baking/pan frying without it turning it into a piece of burnt toast, not entirely necessary by any means. Noodles for breakfast, what in a chicken/beef broth, or, god forbid, not one of those packet sachet things? Surely not unseasoned , right? Mind you , a spicy noodle mix in the morning would pretty much blow the old coffee out of the water.
Certainly, and looks appetizing enough, correct me if im wrong, but, capsicum (bell pepper-or is it tomato?) shallots (spring onion) some sort of-looks like corn, but possibly sprouts of some sort,( chick pea sprouts, maybe) in i hope, a hearty beef broth, or failing that, flavoured with boring old soy for colour and salt flavour. No doubt, a healthy version may be possible-not to rubbish asian cuisine, but after all, how healthy is a ham and cheese croissant, or pancakes in maple syrup, with a side serve of bacon and hashbrowns......but you did pose the question, and muesli comes in with.....debatable credentials, in the long run. What do chinese eat porridge with, BTW? You do use milk, right, in oat porridge?
Personally I don't eat breakfast, I don't eat anything but seven cups of coffee until about 1:00 in the afternoon at that time I might have an Eisenberg's Reubin sandwich just before I work out. If you don't know Eisenberg's it sits proudly and dankly on 5th ave between 21 and 21 streets NYC and has been there since time began. The tiles are the same as 1920 and so are the countermen. This is as old school and anti tourist as you can get in NYC and the sandwich just melts in your mouth. I think they put butter on the outside of the bread before they squish it so it has that marvelous well done factor that one cannot duplicate at home. Also at Eisenberg's the joy of the FOUNTAIN COKE. My GOD is there anything as good as a coke made from scratch. With the deep real syrup that the counterman controls and the fresh fizz, it is just soooooo good and also manages to get your spit reflex going. Chocolate egg creams too- the best. This is a champions meal. My four year old though loves to dunk bread in water, so that premise is not as weird as it sounds. Oh Ac.... The art market is falling apart all around me. The tales in the paper are not good. The price of Warhol's is finally going down... and who is at the top of that wave crashing down? Ole' stoney, I've been asked the " provenance " which got me a little nervous but they said great provenance and they asked if I wanted to lower my reserve.... tough choice. My instinct is this is still an entry price Warhol in the $15K range and these others fetching lower than the auction house would like prices are in the many millions... so there is value here... I think... How are you friend? ~ stoney
Stoney, Nice post about Eisenberg's. Remincse of the good old days. I wonder what the current generation will yearn for when they get older? A nostalgic happy meal, with mom and dad? Whoa, step back in time for some fast food franchise. In pursuit of neat and orderly suburbs, no independents can survive or start up, suburb living has been stripped of character.
