BEST BREAKFAST EVER!!!!

While we're still on the subject of Hastings (see the last 2 days of blog posts), I mentioned a while ago that the B&B we stayed in served the BEST BREAKFAST EVER! Now is the time to prove it...

Firstly... the jam comes in mini cauldrons

Secondly the orange, apple or pineapple juice is served in stone goblets and the napkin rings are encrusted with 'jewels'

Thirdly this is the breakfast menu...

and fourthly this is what it looked like when the full English breakfast arrived...

The vine tomatoes were oven roasted and in summer are grown in their own garden. The mushrooms were cooked in butter. They cater for all sorts of diets if you give them notice (including me and soya milk and our son with a no yeast no sugar diet).

Honestly, its not just us that thought breakfasts there were fab, I read back pages in the guest book and EVERYONE says so!!!
