      [background=#ffffff]and don’t get me started on coffee![/background]

      Then you should definitely try some Italian roast coffee, grind it (or have it grind) to a couple steps above the finest and brew your Moka coffee… best if you have a real Espresso machine. Coffee in Japan tastes more or less like wastewater so I suffered the first year trying to blend the perfect mix!! Oohh… when I found that sweet spot! I didn’t sleep for a couple days!

      BTW, breakfast this morning: Finely sliced chicken (skin on), onions, fresh jalapeno pepper slice and black pepper stir fired for 3 or 4 minutes!

        I have a couple of friends who have the complete machine like you see in the coffee shop, but that is way to much messing around for me. The Nesspresso is a very good compromise and produces very little mess :)

        Thats not breakfast man! thats lunch ;) but sounds like an interesting taste combination. I might have to go to the shop a bit later and see what I can find for my lunch :D

        Just discovered no bacon in the fridge, so going to have to work something different out for this morning and park MrWyrm idea till tomorrow

              We have tabletop espresso machines in italy… the same size of a nespresso. Tey sell for less than 100euros!

              Thats not breakfast man! thats lunch ;)

              Points of view… for me if it’s before 9am it counts as breakfast :)

              More important… wht’s this black/white pudding you’re all talking about! You make me crave for something I don’t even know!! lol

                Black Pudding is Blood Sausage. I think White Pudding is like a vegetarian version made with oats and herbs. It’s very nice.

                You want the Black pudding with the big white fatty lumps in it too. We have an abundance of great local black pudding round here.

                  I LOVE blood sausage… didn’t know that was called black pudding in english! I was thinking of the pudding as a sort of soup…
                  If you have foods like that you guys should definitely spread english food around the world!

                      The best black pudding comes in cake like slabs rather than in round sausage form.

                      I’ve got a picture of breakfast from Christmas day.

                      White Pudding top left. Black Pudding top right.

                      Because it was Christmas, I already had in the Waberthwaite Cumberland (thin) sausage (rather than chipolata) and Streaky Bacon.

                        Now Cumberland sausage that’s the way to go, I had family up in the lakes, and always went to the local butcher and brought some home with me :)

                          Man talks sense. Waberthwaite is the best Cumberland has to offer too.

                            This is an old photo and the sausages are a little over done but that was an awesome breakfast!

                            Cup of tea included!

                                Maybe a fry up on Sunday and it sounds like I should try a white pudding :)

                                  One small point is white pudding is not vegetarian its made of pork and fat and stuff. But no blood. :-)

                                    No blood? Sounds vegetarian to me.

                                      Whaaa, MrWyrm said it was made outta oats and herbs and that sounded yummy, but now it just sounds like a sausage with oats and herbs :|

                                      I don’t like black pudding…I don’t think, I haven’t actually had it.

                                        It’s not like sausage, it’s like a suet fatty oaty herby stuff. I’m sure I’ve seen vegetarian white pudding.

                                          No its better than sausage and it does have herbs and suet and oatmeal but also pork. That’s not to say u can’t get a veggie one tho.

                                          You should try black pudding its great stuff don’t be put off by the blood its really tasty and just makes it black.

                                            I had a sleep day yesterday, and I always wake up massively hungry after that… eaten so much today it’s untrue
