Breakfasting in France poll (1 Viewer)

Mine is without fail, a pain au raison and a piece of lush, large, french fruit.

usually a fresh baguette, with Brie or sometimes Brie + bacon or poached egg

 

[buttons]

We could have done with more than one option. Toast is only part of a touring breakfast. Toast with an egg or fruit.

 

[Chris]

I have baguette toasted on one of those toasters for a gas ring.

You can't beat French bread for that

We alternate, muesli one day scrambled eggs, bacon and tomatoes the next. We eat bread only once or twice a week.

I know, the list cld have been endless, but toast meant just toast. Will amend the eggs one to eggs and toast Was interested in how many peeps stick to their usual british type fayre and how many enjoy the french nosh first thing. We camped next to one couple who wldn't entertain eating anything other than a fry up first thing and went as far as stocking up on british sausages !!!

 

[snowdrops]

Can't amend the eggs benedict so read that as eggs, boiled, fried whatever and toast

Apart from a baguette nothing else takes my fancy for breakfast. Croissant Choc au pain or Pain au raison are ok for women but hardly a mans choice. Toast with a bit of fruit or a boiled egg Yum.

Must tell my husband he's been eating breakfast only suitable for women. Personally, I can't stand sweet things at breakfast time. Much prefer an egg.

 

[Baldeagle7470]

Pain au Raisan dipped in my coffee,yum yum!

Snap Helen and it has to be that jam

 

[parknride]

Warm croissants, can't do with cold ones, unsalted French butter and bonne maman apricot jam + 2 cups of tea. Groaning here, just started 5:2 diet and ready for my off diet day brekkie now!
Must be something to bonne maman jam, its popular!

 

[spitfire]

Nothing but a cup of tea ! Only buy croissants when we have guests !

shocking division of gender comment there, some of the pain au raison eating fellas be round to see you with something heavy in an hour or 2 lol !!!!! To be fair tho, some of the pain au raisons are massive, I'll try and upload my pic of the one this hols, bigger than a larger than large scary tabloid spider !!

 

[snowdrops]

really surprised at the amount of cereal/fruit lovers. The fruit tho is so much nicer there isn't it ? Fat and sweet and lushness, even the ones in a glass

 

[Forestboy]

Croissants for me with a local honey mmmm.

In fact, in my experience, pains aux raisins are real virility enhancers. Give me a pain aux raisins man any day!

We bought some lavender honey when we were nr St Remy, not tried it yet. Not a lover of croissants, they don't feel filling but are nice with fruit, determined to try them now with honey ....... when I'm off the diet next May !!!

And the fruit seems ready to eat as well, not rock hard as often the case in the UK. We finished off the peaches today, they were of the flat, mouth-shaped variety, can't remember the proper name for them, but they were yummy. Had them after our usual lunchtime salad.

Which might be a good subject for a second poll - we have cold meats, cheese and salad virtually every day for lunch unless we eat out.

Start of every trip I buy a jar of local honey to have with my croissants then have the rest at home with porridge.
