Fast Food Breakfast

I miss the old YumDinger sandwich from Burger King.

Melted cheese and hot ham on a bun.

Cat Man

The Egg McMuffin (bastardization of eggs benedict)

Breakfast Burrito. Both McDonald's products.

Usually eaten on LONG driving vacations. Otherwise made at home.

scattered, smothered, covered and chunked.......Waffle House hash browns, with ham, onions and american cheese......ketchups on the table.
Not exactly drive through fare but pretty darn fast with entertainment thrown in gratitus.

I like the crepes suzette with fresh cream and berries at my local drive thru bistro.























YEAH RIGHT IF ONLY!

I believe Waffle House is a Midwestern and Southeastern chain. Waffle House® - Waffle House History I've never eaten there myself.

It's been so long since I ate fast-food breakfasts! When I wasn't paying attention to fat and calories, I enjoyed the McDonald's Egg McMuffin. It seemed much less fatty than the Burger King breakfast croissants with sausage, cheese and egg. I had a few in my past and remember grease dripping out of them. :eek:

Kuan, maybe there's a market there....:D :bounce:

so how would you eat crepes and drive at the same time? Blintz's sure....ooooo now that's an undeveloped fast food product line.....

I have only ever eaten breakfast from a fast food place, once.... in Sydney with my sister, at her insistence, at a McDs.... once was enough :smiles:

Musta just missed 'em...
Waffle House® - Find a Waffle House® Location

There are Waffle Houses here in Florida and made the mistake of going in one..ugh..don't really like fast food anything..

I'm a sucker for eating at a place where 10 ft away a guy is cooking up multiple orders of food on a flattop getting the verbal clues to setup his visual clues. Just really enjoy seeing a good short order cook work. happens at the taqueria too....these guys weild a thin long flexible blade and a large paint spatula and chop/hack up shankmeat, other interesting cuts....seasoning, flipping, hacking....just a beautiful way to spend lunch....tacos and a show for low cost.

Waffle House hashbrowns are not fresh, nor are they flavorful without the goo.....but they are what they are.....crispy on the outside with bits of ham, onions and american cheese melted on top. Nothing fancy, nothing I'd haul foodie friends to and say wow taste these, but something that fills a desire occasionally for a show with a side of fried carbs.

Re:

I used to, in the late 90's have to go to work early in the morning. And I used to stop at del taco for some breakfast burritos ,or jack-in-the-box sourdough breakfast samitch<---(slang) those were the good old' days. There was something about the toasting of the bread yummers.

fast food NYC style

of course we have the usual suspects like Mickey D's and The King
and I HOP - which is as close as we get to Waffle House

but we have so many ethnic options available especially for breakfast and they are all very quick

some longtime favorites are

chinese dim sum - and congee soup

vietnamese pho - good for breakfast, lunch or dinner
ranging in size and price from $3 - 4.50 (more than enough for 2 people I think)


real mexican breakfast burrittos (by real I mean not Mickey D's)

with scrambled eggs, chorizo sausage, black beans and salsa - a huge burritto that I can share with my sweetie for about $4

and bodega or deli scrambled eggs on kaiser roll with bacon and cheese ketchup salt and pepper -

bagel and cream cheese or flavored cream cheese - definitely a standby quintessential NYC breakfast or snack

Would C Ration scrambled eggs count?? :lol:

NOW that's American Fusion - New York meets Tex Mex.

I like the idea of chili cilantro cream cheese - that would make a great filling for an hors d'oeuvre...

Favorite fast food breakfast would have to be

1. Homemade breakfast tacos from the local taqueria (potato and egg, bean and egg and fresh salsa)

2. Bagel, cream cheese and lox with capers and onions (this place I used to go to would mix the onion and capers into the cream cheese then slather it onto the bagels and top with a couple slices of lox and close it with the top of the bagel, cut in half and there ya go...Bob's Your Uncle!

Burgerking whopper:confused:

C ration eggs would be up for discussion about it actually be food....if so which food group....

ummm NY bagels, sesame with real cream cheese....thick please.
or even better white raising pumpernickle toasted with cream cheese shmeer....SilverPalate had the recipe in one of their early cookbooks, one where Julie and Sheila were partners still.

Pho, I'm with you.....brisket and extra tendon please.
congee with pork, green onions and cruellers.....little soy on top hold the black egg please.
dim sum, yep that too......ummmmmm........
Somehow STL missed the breakfast boat and I have no idea why.....the western USA has pie for breakfast, loads of fruit/yogurt/granola, interesting pancakes with various flours, fillings, syrups.......the south USA has biscuits with either gravy, jam or sorghum/cane syrup, grits, eggs sometimes hashbrowns.....New Orleans has beignets and creole brunch.....
we've talked NY treats.....

But STL, has negligable breakfast places, it stradles the Mason-Dixon line so is not really north nor south.....at one time there were an awful lot of German bakeries but not so much anymore.....actually not many bakeries at all.
everyday diner breakfast that is edible is a beautiful thing and not readily available here.

Still stand by the short order cook- food combo as an alltime treat though....it'd be exceptional if the food were good.

nope....Meyer's gone....Pan Dora gone....no bakeries worth mentioning in STL....now there is a very good one in Columbia, Mo and one 45 mintues away in Edwardsville....
nope no bakeries...Whole Food's breads are about the best commercially made around.
You are so very lucky to have all the great bakeries available to you...just at Ferry Plaza Market there are numerous bakerys I'd (and have) wax poetry over.

sounds wonderful. I owe Dr. Art Lang (Happy Apple farmer) an order of dried fruit. He has the most incredible dried satsumas...and the chocolate covered ones are exceptional.

You've found my weakness.

That's the only thing that would make me eat breakfast, besides cream cheese and a fried-with-butter piece of Mucke Kielbasa ring with toast. But the bagel's #1. I like the veggie cheese cream + the yellow bagels. I'm sure it's psychological and the color tricks my brain into eating, but I won't have anything other than my yellow bagel.

Wistfully,
Chef Ladybug.

They're not that strange. It's a bagel and it's yellow. I don't know what makes them that way.

:confused:
