There was a mark in the ham, when I checked it afterwards it looked like pen ink, as if someone had written something on the ham packet and it soaked onto the ham. Definitely wasn’t mould. But I did pick it out.

Then you wouldn’t be able to buy it 🤣

You can probably tell by my build that I also enjoy a fry up. But on a day where it got up to 33 degrees I must confess that something a little lighter that sits easier on the stomach was just the ticket 🙂

As a child of the 70s that’s probably where the chips and salad cream came from. We ate some strange things looking back. Any time we had a salad it would have a dollop of cold baked beans on it 🤣 Glad you’re enjoying having a little trawl through the archives!

One of the best continental breakfast spreads I have had in a long time. Stayed in a lot of hotels in Europe over the years, and many a lot more expensive than this one (if work was paying!). But this breakfast was right up there let me tell you!

Absolutely - and although I ate well it felt like a lighter breakfast than I would have had in a UK hotel. Which given it was 33 degrees outside by lunchtime was not unwelcome !!

One of the finest buffet breakfasts I have had in a long while - big fan of a preoper continental style brekkie!

Don't get me wrong, I do love a fry up. But given the fact it was gonna be 33 degrees that day, having a slightly lighter option for breakfast was absolutely perfect!

I used to live in South Wales myself for several years, Cardiff, Newport, Magor, Caerphilly. Used to do that kind of drive down to Dorset a lot myself - have to say I prefer Lyme Regis to Porthcawl !

@@GreenoEats hi Greeno i live in Newport but originally from Cwmbran Porthcawl not quite Lyme except Elvis week lol.

@@JSC131 I bought a house on the manor Park estate atound 25 years ago when they were newly built. The deeds said it was in Coedkernew, but realistically it was closer to Duffryn !

It was a very tasty breakfast indeed. But what I can't understand is why everyone is referencing the Ultravox Vienna, when the Billy Joel song Vienna is a better tune (in my opinion!)

@@GreenoEats Pffffffft..!

@@FossaBooks Whilst I am a committed early 90s indie boy, Billy Joel is a guilty pleasure of mine!

@@GreenoEats Understandable, Uptown Girl and We Didn't Start the Fire are all time pop classics!

It really was very tasty - a wide selection of nice produce, well presented. Tha nks so much for the kind words :-)

It's a fabulous city - I wish I could have spent more than 24 hours there. Unlike many UA-camrs I will (generally) keep my fish & chips and Full English breakfast reviews for when I am in the UK :-)

I really liked this hotel - nice room, great breakfast and the service from the staff throughout the hotel was excellent.

Actually that's a good idea to try sometime. Next week I show a small hotel in Bratislava which was a lot cheaper than the Vienna one - I will be interested to see your thoughts on that one when it comes out :-)

I understand that - I am merely saying that compared to most other centrally located Vienna hotels it was reasonably priced. Most others that I saw for the same evening were 200+ Euro - the bigger name chain brands were 300-500 Euro!!

I'd love it if you could get such a wide variety of foods at a UK breakfast buffet. Don't get me wrong, I love a full English as much as the next man, but the selection here of cold meats, cheeses, breads etc. was just amazing. Such a lot of choice, good quality and nicely presented.

@@GreenoEats I’m with you Greeno, it makes a nice change. Like you I love a full English there NEEDS to be Black Pudding on mine 😂

@@theabandonedhunter3604 can't beat a bit of black pudding. I was once in an indoor market in somewhere like Bury or Blackburn, and got a black pudding bap with brown sauce for myself and my then boss who was appalled by it lol !

I might have been recognised out and about recently, but I think "famous" is a bit of a stretch ha ha!

Ha ha - I avoided the prosecco, but there was one table with 2 women who I counted having 3 glasses each 🍾 A bit early for that level of consumption !!

@@GreenoEats I remember beeing to Antwerp with my Mom and we have had a few glass of champagne for breakfast, not the best idea in the world to be honest.

I like the concept Jessica! 😀

It was a nice little hotel - great location, friendly and helpful staff and a nice room as you say. The breakfast was excellent, shame I only had one night there!

👍

Give it a go - you do occasionally get a duff one, but quickly learn to avoid those places and go to the ones you get better results from !

A good continental breakfast is amazing isn't it - I just wish that we could get the here too!

I should have thought of that - as after that breakfast I walked the almost 3 miles to the station in swetering heat, and didn't eat again until later in the evening in Hungary!

Do you prefer a UK hotel breakfast or a European one? It’s a tough one to call for me!

@@GreenoEats A combination of both!

Did you ever try Ruby Hotels or Motel One? Very popular in Germany 😊 cant wait to advice you Cologne hotels, hotels are part of my business 😊

@@jessicanippes1730really…. Cologne hotels, tell me more then I can get booked up!

Brilliant tour so far sir!

Certainly wasn't expensive compared to a number of others I saw - and the big name brands some of them were crazy money!

I have to say that a continental breakfast does sit a little easier on the stomach than a full English / Irish / Scottish does. But the continental breakfast over here in the British Isles is just dismal. Bowl of coco pops and a croissant and you're done!

@@GreenoEats I agree.

Yeah, was a cracking start to the day Tim! Hungary coming up next video!

Vielen Dank!

In the 5 days I spent in Europe I don't think I had bad service anywhere, whether it was bar, restaurant or hotel. In Central European countries there are even hospitality schools where you can do vocational training. It's seen as important for sure.

Keep commenting pal - it's all interesting stuff! The range of breads in that part of the world is fabulous isn't it.

Thanks for the detailed comment Jonathan 🙂 Double cardiac arrest sounds like the name of a band you might have seen at a German Rock Festival!! I flew over but with the 3 hour drive to Stansted to get my flight I almost wish I had picked another mode of transport, train is certainly a great way to get around once you’ve arrived in this part of the world.

@GreenoEats Absolutely a regret I never did the Interail back in the day. Was I think in 70s about £149 for one month rail travel, in those days apart from first class any ICE TGV etc. Reminds me of Round The World programme ah freedom days

@@747jono yeah, I'm the same, just never got round to Interrailling round Europe, and then real grown up life happened. On this trip I saw a bunch of folk doing exactly that, small groups from the UK, Sweden and others, with a large backpack hopping from hostel to hostel seeing the world.

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, this did knock a Premier Inn into a cocked hat!

Definitely cheaper and less busy midweek!

Simple things in life are often the best! I do have an email, it's greenoeats@gmail.com 🙂

I do like curry in a pie, chicken balti pies are relatively popular here

Interesting aren't they!

@@GreenoEats love they give u the info on them and country too, great idea

What is?

Do they? I think it’s interesting to see what kind of things people eat in other countries, plus the little information booklet is a good sneaky way of getting them to learn a bit more about the place too 🙂

Welcome to the channel 🙂 Glad you enjoyed the video, lots more to come!

@GreenoEats cheers boss. Keep them coming👊

Allow me to interject. The music you hear is Mozart - Eine Kleine Nachtmusik

Thanks Hazel - appreciate the kind words. As I note David just answered, it was indeed Eine Kleine Nachtmusik - when in Austria got to go with a bit of Mozart !

Thank you :-)

That's unfortunate - I think I got a decent portion, and for the money, well I think it was actually a really good breakfast

I absolutely agree - not sure there's a single thing in the box that could be considered even half healthy! And as for Little'un - she is already teasing me that I am not the most popular person on my own channel !

This was good, but not the best snack parcel we ever got 😀 Little'un does like to help make these snack videos - just so she can try all the snacks!!

She cant let you do all the hard work by yourself 😂​@@GreenoEats

Yep - it's getting close now ! Thanks 😀

Yeah we do have a bit of fun when she agrees to come on a video with me !

She tells me I am not even the most popular person on my own channel Smithy! It’s interesting to see what folk snack on in other countries, I wonder what they’d make of a UK snack box, with dry roasted peanuts, scampi fries and a Fry’s peppermint cream 🤣

@@GreenoEats reckon we could throw in some Black Pudding Greeno?! 😂 kids hey mate…. Who’d have um! 😀

I prefer the savoury things, too 😂

​​@@GreenoEatsI bet Walkers crisps and cadbury chocolate, and I would only buy it for the peppermint chocolate from UK, it is hard to get in Germany

@@jessicanippes1730 💯 Jessica! You all good?

Certainly some interesting items, always fun to find out what snacks are popular in other parts of the world I think 🙂

@@GreenoEats I agree.

Most kind of you to say so 🙂

That year I spent studying Russian language had to come in useful one day, who know it would be for reading Bulgarian snack wrappers 🤣
