your bacon looks very different from 'western' bacon. almost as if it were solid meat. is it belly?

I'm not sure what you mean by 'western bacon'. American bacon is very different from standard British bacon (which would be more 'solid meat'), for example.

As to what I used, I guess it's belly. It's just supermarket packet bacon. American style. Perhaps, it looks more solid because most of the fat has been rendered out.

And I would willingly pay to eat it! A perfectly simple meal perfectly executed.

I don't often post my breakfasts because they usually consist of a shot of espresso (sometimes accompanied by a half piece of toasted bread with jam or honey, if I feel extravagant), but here is one from this weekend. A couple of fried duck eggs, Benton's bacon, local avocados & cherry tomatoes.

Great looking breakfast and I love your choice of beverage.

Early breakfast:

Sapporo Ichiban chicken flavor instant ramen (Oh, the horror!!! NOT.) gussied up with chopped Rainbow Chard, a couple of poached farm eggs, a splash of veggie oil, and some of the leftover sautéed zucchini from the previous day's lunch.

:-)

I eat "instant ramen" without any feelings of guilt. It's not gourmet food but it's decent, some brands better than others. ;-)

Today - Leek & Potato soup. (and onions, of course) Not blended, I prefer soup with solids floating in it - as I'm sure some may have noticed about my soups in general. The ingredients included a couple of leeks, small red Yukon potatoes (skin on), cipollini onions, bay leaves, sea salt, good olive oil. Darn, I partially burnt the onions when sautéeing them...and fished out most of the burnt pieces, but not all. The soup tasted fine, anyway. :-)

More leftover chicken and vegetables sauteed with a good helping of home made kimchi.

Another b'fast some days back - Angled loofah, fish balls, snow fungus, garlic soup.

Have I been living in a cave? I can honestly say I don't think I've ever realized people ate loofah. I just googled it and was enlightened.

Anna, what a nice spicy way to start the day.

Thank you. I cannot eat sweet things in the morning.

Those chive pancakes look delicious; is there a recipe, or is it just beaten eggs and chives? I dearly love scallion pancakes from the Chinese restaurant, but they're SO oily!

I used the recipe from the blog "101 Cookbooks" but substituted white rice flour.
