I'd prefer savory breakfast food. It's more like a wake up call for my palette, but I eat pancakes for breakfast as well although very seldom. Sweet food early in the morning when I wake up is just too much.

I'm a student chef right now, I just started a week ago and I'm into searching reference books that will enhance my learning. Any books that you guys can recommend? The only reference book I know so far is Larousse Gastronomique, our chef told us it's a good one. Hope you guys can contribute what you know! I'd appreciate online references too. Thanks!
