Notes about this book

  • Jane on June 18, 2024

    I love Felicity Cloake's writing - she writes in a evocative way about food and is laugh-out-loud funny. I also learned a lot about the history of regional British breakfasts.

Publishers Text

The charming and joyful follow-up book from ‘the nation’s taster in chief,’ Felicity Cloake.

If there’s one thing that truly unites Britain, from Aberdeen to Abernethy, St Ives to St Pancras, it’s an obsession with breakfast.

We all have an opinion on the merits of brown sauce versus ketchup on our morning bacon sandwich. In this eagerly awaited follow up to ‘One More Croissant for the Road’, the nation’s favourite taster-in-chief Felicity Cloake sets off on an epic cycle trip round Britain to investigate and celebrate the legendary Great British Breakfast. She rates fry-ups on criteria from the crispness of the bacon to how long they keep her pedalling. Yet a woman cannot live by All Day Breakfast alone, so as well as recipes for Omelette Arnold Bennett or proper porridge, she reports back on the delights of regional specialities she encounters along the way, from a desi breakfast in Birmingham to a stottie cake from the original Greggs in Gosforth; this is a true tour of Britain.

Eaten with as much relish in The Wolseley on Piccadilly as in The Regency Café in Victoria, Britain is a country that runs on breakfast.
