It was called.. Brek ‘O’ Day..I suppose it means Breakfast of the day?
Well before I jump into the dish itself.. did you know the origin of the word breakfast? It was from break (v.) + fast (n.). Cf. Fr. déjeuner “to breakfast,” from L. dis-jejunare “to break the fast.” The verb is from 1679. The English word derives from the concept that sleep prevents eating, thus an involuntary fast occurs during sleep; this fast is broken by the first meal – called breakfast.
It is the most important meal of the day. Research has shown that children who did not have breakfast perform worst in school. And it gives rise to higher risk of obesity.. and you thought skipping breakfast will make you thinner.. HAH..
Haha.. Interesting huh? If you ever want to know more about breakfast, just click on the word. =p
Anyways, back to the Brek ‘O’ Day.
Menu: Break ‘O’ Day
Venue: Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Price: S$ 7.20
Verdict: 3/5
Review: I’m not exactly sure if it’s an English breakfast, but it involves scrambled eggs, toasted bread, 2 sausages and an awesome salad. Top it off with a choice of tea or coffee. It was quite heavy for breakfast, but the servings were attractive and definitely delicious. They have a different kind of salad which was very fresh and awesome. It had small tomatoes, berries, almond nuts on top of lettuce, along with an unidentifiable yet lovely sauce which combined all the unusual ingredients together to make one fabulously bright and tasty salad. The eggs, bread and sausages were.. well.. ordinary? But I think I was very satisfied with this choice for breakfast.
