Hello PH Massive,

I am in urgent need of a full english breakfast. The only problem is that i am in Ravenna, Italy and cannot find one anywhere. Can anyone help on this most serious of requests.

Many thanks

Go to shop... Buy stuff... Cook it.

Unfortunately it is quite difficult to find an open shop on a sunday here, also bacon, beans and black pudding are difficult to come by. Also i'd like someone to make it for me

[The Moose]

Good luck.

That's all I've got to say on the matter!

Ravenna or Ravello?

Give up and find a Maccie D's, there is no chance of you a,finding anywhere open to buy the necessary, or b, somewhere to eat it, macDonalds bacon/cheese is probably as close as you'll get.

You could always do what the rest of us do and enjoy a really good capuccino & brioche....

For Ref:

Eggs= Uova (scrambled= strapazzati, fried =occhio di bue, poached =in camicia)
Bacon= Pancetta
Sausage= salsiccia
Mushrooms= Funghi
Black Pud= Sanguinaccia
Beans= fagioli stufati
Tomatoes= Pomodori

Esselunga stock heinz beans and sometimes marmite!

(says she having just had a fabulous bacon sarnie)

Hey, i live here and have immersed myself in this culture enough. I'm just super hungry and craving a little piece of home, and this morning a brioche just wont cut the mustard.

I empathise totally, I lived 18 years in Italy and the first thing I did when I came back to London last July was look for a bacon sarnie, but I lived in leyton and all the cafe's were Halal...I had to walk over a mile to find a bacon sandwich IN EAST LONDON.....

Now my Bialetti tazzona has arrived I can now have the best of both worlds, Capuccino and a bacon sarnie for breakfast every morning!

I'm happy to send you bacon if you'll swap with a return of bialetti capsules

You should have hopped on a bus to Walthamstow market, plenty of cafes there

Croissant is french a "brioche" in italy takes different forms from an apricot jam filled one in milan to a sort of painbrioche roll eaten in sicily with granita for breakfast where a "brioche" becomes a "pasta" filled with fresh ricotta.
The internationalisation of language means that many terms have been adpoted outside their endemic nations.....brioche, self service, taxi, weekend etc......
