  • About 2 Years ago I reviewed a Full English Breakfast at Booths Supermarket (The Waitrose of The North) and it was dreadful. It was however just after Lockdown, so I thought they deserve a second chance. So here's my review of their Full English Breakfast.

    I’m a great fan of shopping at Booths, but my nearest by bus is Chorley that doesn’t have a café. Living in Bolton, I have travelled directly by train to Clitheroe and tried the new café there a few times.
    During 2020, I started travelling afar in my car and had a Booths breakfast at Garstang. Very enjoyable; (I took a picture to send to my brother so I know it was in October 😀) two halves of a large grilled tomato, half a dozen small mushrooms, one hash brown, two slices of bacon, TWO SAUSAGES, baked beans, a FRIED EGG, two slices of brown toast with as much butter as you wanted, as much salt and pepper as you wanted and a wide range of sauce sachets, again, as much as you wanted, with a mug of coffee.
    I can’t remember the cost, but it was enjoyable and filling.
    Recently, I tried the version you had, but at Clitheroe. A slice of black pudding used to be an optional extra, but not now and, to be blunt, with no fried egg, I can’t stand scrambled eggs - to me, it was a huge disappointment, and only one sausage to boot.
    They describe it as their signature breakfast - a hearty breakfast. I’m sorry to say I still felt hungry afterwards.

    The ratio of tomato to bacon and sausage would have left me unsatisfied.
    I’m not greedy, but one sausage and two small pieces of bacon is not enough in my opinion.

    The eggs are scrambled, because they're easier to keep warm without the customer being aware, than fried eggs are. You can't keep the yolk runny for very long when you keep fried eggs warm. Then you said it came out quickly? So the whole breakfast was precooked and kept warm I reckon.

But Lee I wanted to say that the days we are living in are not like the 1960s; it a very Crazy world now; and I don’t think it is safe to drive across country in USA anymore. And you should be aware of that; and I know your family needs you.

    I’ve had breakfasts at several places over the last few years. My biggest grip is that they don’t seem to cook bacon or sausages long enough. The fat on the bacon is almost raw and the sausages only brown on two sides. Almost raw inside.
    Back in the day the bacon would be crisp and the sausages cooked all round and through.
    As for fried eggs it pisses me off when the yolk is hard. I do like a dippy egg.

    The definition of theft is “ dishonestly appropriating property belonging to another with the purpose of permanently depriving them of it “. ( your Dad would have known that definition) . As the sauce was provided and paid for there is no dishonesty and technically the sauce is yours as it’s paid for.
