My husband and I very seldom eat a full, hot breakfast at home. It's not that we can't but rather that we enjoy lounging sipping hot coffee on weekend mornings. Breakfast usually consists of a piece of fruit and yogurt unless the kids are home then we make a full, hot breakfast. The funny thing is when we were doing a lot of camping bacon and eggs for breakfast was the normal camp breakfast. When we are traveling we usually enjoy a full breakfast and yet at our vacation home unless we have company we are back to fruit and yogurt. During our recent vacation in Las Vegas we ate a hot breakfast each morning.
My husband ordered poached eggs with country fried steak. Country fried steak is a thin cut of steak that is coated in a bread coating then fried. It is usually served with a white gravy made from the pan drippings. The breakfast came with choice of toast and coffee. Coffee at Du-Pars is a nice full blend that compliments the breakfast nicely. Refills are free.
I ordered sunny side up eggs for dipping toast into. This is my favourite way to enjoy breakfast eggs. Unfortunately, dipped eggs have been discouraged due to a possible salmonella threat from under cooked eggs. I've eaten a lot of eggs this way and have never been sick although I have had a bout of sickness due to salmonella that was not food borne. It wasn't pleasant but I survived and learned a valuable lesson in the process.
My meal was more than substantial, nicely cooked just the way I like my eggs. The bacon was quite lovely too, cooked to crispy unlike many times when it comes a bit undercooked for my liking. All in all it was a great breakfast to start our vacation with!

I always request "very crispy bacon" when ordering, otherwise I just cannot eat it.
I also cannot tolerate any of the egg white uncooked so always get over medium, still have runny yolk, but all the white is cooked.
We have a great diner here in town that we go to at least once per month - the breakfast consists of 3 eggs, 4 strips bacon (or other meat choice), toast & deepfried hasbrown potato chunks, and coffee with refills all for $5.75 (it was $4.50 when we started going there).
Best part is that we know all the servers, so it is like visiting fmaily :)
