    Red for bacon and brown for sausage in the Bogon household.

    The real dilemma is if you have a bacon and sausage together.

    I have a similar issue with beans and tomatoes. Either, or, but not both. The contrasting flavours sort of cancel each other out.
    On the subject of sauce choices, it’s just changing it around to provide some variety. Can’t settle on either, but availability is sometimes a problem here.

    Big four homestay days coming up. Fifteen cyclists tonight then 9, 5 and 6 pax over the next three days. Had to start it off right, made bacon, egg and cheese rolls at the wife's request. These two are mine. The wife adds hot chili sauce to hers, on top of the BBQ sauce I've already sloshed on. It's just not right. (Wife wants to make these a special homestay brekky item but I'm not keen.)

    I,m sorry BiP but I would have to detract marks on your rolls.
    I don't reckon you should put sauce of them
    I recon the bacon ain't cooked enough
    The rolls aren't toasted
    And finally I can't see the eggs but if they are runny yolks it would be more marks off.

    Mind you I would still eat the fukkers cause I ain't really fussy.

    How much to create one, how much are your breakfasts. Not that Thais include costs into their profit calculations generally.

    Ho OhOh,

    All our room rates include breakfast.

    Our Asian breakfast comprises cut fresh fruit, pork fried rice, pork & vegetable broth and decent tea or coffee. We outsource the rice and broth. Our cost for the whole thing is 130 baht.

    Our English style breakfast comprises cut fresh fruit, yogurt, thick toast with real salted butter, jams/honey/peanut butter, pork sausage, potato cake, baked beans, mushrooms sauteed in garlic butter, grilled tomato, herb scented scrambled eggs and decent tea/coffee. Our cost for the whole thing is 170 baht.

    I'd estimate the materials cost of a bacon, egg and cheese roll like this at 70 baht.

    Sh@t ootai, maybe there are TD members I don't want to meet...but at least the yolks were hard on mine, cannot abide runny yolks. Will concede on the bacon. Another shot tomorrow when the 15 cyclists have left. Stay tuned.

    I'll await bsnub's definitive statement, otherwise I get a little monthly present from him.

    Really?

    That wouldn't be my guess.

    Ever been to a country where free wifi is more rare, for example?

    (Except the ones without wifi period, obviously. )

    He struggles with this continually. He has limited knowledge, but zero understanding on how to apply it. Bless.

    I woke up this morning with urges, after dreaming all night about what I'd like to eat for breakfast.

    Interesting...I've noticed the wife seems interested in indulging certain urges on bacon, egg and cheese roll mornings. Need to make sure she doesn't learn how to make them herself.

    My weekday breakfast...

    Berries with natural yogurt, muesli (sultanas removed) and bran sprinkled on top, and then with added fruit.

    Followed by a blood pressure pill washed down with a very small orange juice, and coffee.

    To be honest I'm surprised at how quickly I've got used to this and now actually enjoy it... but I'm still looking forward to a bacon sandwich tomorrow morning!

    ^Nice!.

    I went with a pork sausage-bbq sauce roll this morning using the practical yet somewhat controversial method of halving the snags

    How can a man who proudly drinks out of a Leo glass reconcile that ideology with a Starbucks mug?

    Of lesser importance, the breakfast looks nice.

    Sh*t Dill, didn't see this post till now.

    Upstairs in the kitchenette we supply Nescafe Red Cup coffee, Gold Ovaltine and Twinings English Breakfast and Yellow tea bags. Plus raw sugar, proper milk and some type of artificial sweetner. I will not have any two/three/four in one satchel in the house. Upstairs the guests serve themselves any time they want.

    With breakfast we offer Nan province coffee in a plunger (we grind the beans to order) and tradition tea, green tea and jasmine tea in proper tea pots.

    A solid 9 for the English version...

    I'm gonna call it a Tie, the Yankee one even could have been improved upon with crispier bacon.

    They went together like Trump and Boris
