Taiwan
In Taiwan, breakfasts tend to be a mix of Northern and Eastern Chinese dishes and the traditional south-eastern Chinese fare. This is more pronounced in cities with high proportions of people of mainland Han Chinese descent, such as Taipei.
由于歷史的因素,臺灣的早餐沒有鮮明的本地特征,而是中國各地的混合體。
Hong Kong
In a Hong Kong cha chaan teng breakfasts might consist of Hong Kong-style milk tea, coffee, ham, and fried eggs, and a bowl of macaroni soup with ham. In upmarket restaurants or hotels, however, standard English and Continental breakfasts are served。
港式茶餐廳的早餐包含有港式奶茶、咖啡、火腿、煎蛋、火腿通粉。而高檔的飯店或者酒店里還會提供標準的英式和歐式早餐。
英式早餐
英國人喜歡a substantial hot meal for breakfast,英國酒店餐廳的Full English Breakfast英式早餐全餐,比其他國家的正餐還要豐富,絕非只有牛角包配果醬咖啡的歐式早餐Continental Breakfast可比。這份早餐俗稱the fry-up,因為里面多是煎炸的食物:香腸sausage,腌肉bacon,蘑菇mushroom,番茄tomato。除此之外,還有土司toast,英式烤餅scone,茄汁焗豆baked beans等傳統(tǒng)食物。
吃英式早餐,雞蛋是不能少的。雞蛋通常有fried,scrambled,boiled和poached四種烹調方法。
Fried是煎,英國人煎蛋,通常只煎一面,蛋黃生生的,俗稱“太陽蛋”,也就是美國人口中的sunny side up;Scrambled是炒;Boiled是把雞蛋連殼直接放進水里煮,熟透的叫做hard-boiled,半熟的叫做soft-boiled;Poached是把蛋去殼后用溫水煮,煮出來的蛋內(nèi)生外熟,形狀不一。
去飯店要雞蛋的時候,服務員問你蛋要怎么煮,你就可以說:I'll have them scrambled, please,也可以直接說Scrambled, please。
英式早餐全餐雖然豐富好吃,但它not usually served at breakfast time during the week。許多人選擇reserve the full cooked breakfast for weekends,或者干脆去café 和pub享用。飯店也是個不錯的選擇,因為那里的早餐quite substantial in size and variety。
