china snippets – breakfast

chatting about the omelette i just made reminded me of the hostel breakfasts in china – they were all so amazing!

we had breakfast in the hostel for the first half of our trip, and i swear i went into major cholesterol and oil overload thanks to the breakfasts that came with 2 sunny-side ups, ham/bacon/sausage, toast, orange juice and perhaps a fruit salad/fruit.

breakfasts are really cheap in china for the price that you’re paying, and they’re not stingy on oil either, which means PERFECT sunny-side ups – with the yolk still runny – and very greasy and tasty bacon. the best breakfast i had was in suzhou, as the eggs were so well done that the whites were still slighty soft and not overcooked in the least. and of course they had a good portion of bacon too :) :)

plus, travelling with someone who doesnt eat eggs meant that sometimes i got FOUR eggs a day. i think this happened about twice, before i got really really sick of eating that many eggs in a day.

but china is awesome for sunny-side ups. and i’m really craving some bacon now. help!!
