Breakfast Time at your B & B

Breakfast - most important meal of the day. 

People like to eat breakfast when they are on holiday. a small bowl of cereal at home will become a fully loaded cooked breakfast when they are on holiday.

It's important that you offer a good choice.

If you publish a menu make sure you show if eggs are sourced locally or you make your own bread. People like the rustic local approach for breakfast. Make the most of local produce and make sure you advertise it as local produce. Fresh local produce will always be more popular than supermarket stocks.

What should be on the menu?

In reality only you can decide. Most people will not want a full breakfast and will just choose a few options. If you attract visitors from Europe you will find that they often prefer scrambled eggs to fried eggs so you will need to keep more in stock - unless you intend to make a single egg scrambled egg - which doesn't look very much on the plate.

It's nice to offer a choice of beverages but unless you know it will be in demand avoid things like Earl Grey tea and fruit flavoured teas. It might look nice on the menu but you can be sure the "best before" date will have passed well before you empty the box.

If you cater for American visitors they may have strange requirements for cooking eggs. It would be an idea to research "sunny side up" and "easy over" just in case.
