Royal Breakfasts

Today is the day after the Royal Wedding and there was a big breakfast, a Survivor's Breakfast that the Palace (more like Prince Harry) threw.It was mostly sandwiches and anything breakfast-y that can be fried. On the part of the best man it was a nice gesture. However fried food after a night of drinking and partying could be rough.

The English love a good fry up.This is with eggs and bacon, good on its' own but there are additions. Fried beans, mushrooms tomatoes and even bread are crisped in the bacon drippings and eaten deep fried This whole meal is usually washed down with endless cups of milky sweet tea. An English fried breakfast takes some getting used to and even Brits these day prefer healthier fare.

Sandwiches or sarnies were also served. The most famed is the bacon butty, a big buttered hamburger roll full of streaky bacon (it's just known as plain bacon here in the States). It's usually drowned in ketchup or brown sauce . There may have been other sandwiches too (although details on these were kept mum). Hopefully these fit in well with a night of knee's up as the Brits would say.

After a big event it's always nice to have a cooling down decompressing period.After the Royal Wedding , it's good to know that Harry threw a breakfast worthy of this. One can only wonder if the newlyweds joined their guests for some fried eggs and bacon butties.
