RASHERS REVIEW: Cassa Byrne-Benson, Tulla, County Clare, Ireland.

Tulla, Clare, Ireland.

There is no better start to the day than a good chat and good food. So, a relaxed start to the day in Cassa Byrne-Benson was fabulous as chef Lydia prepared a feast of sausages, eggs, toast, rashers and eggs. Washed down with pot after pot of delicious tea, this has to have been the perfect start to the day.

RASHERS REVIEW: Cafe Sofia, Wexford St, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Cafe Sofia, Dublin 2, Ireland.

I have been going to Cafe Sofia in Wexford St for my breakfast on and off for some seven or eight years now. In fact when I started going there first it was called something else. I can't remember what.

When I started going there first the breakfast they produced was the perfect Irish breakfast. It cost five pounds and was available all day. Over the years the quality has deteriorated a fair bit. The pudding has been phased out and extra chips have taken their place. The egg is of variable quality. It used to be sunny side up every time, with the yolk just right for dipping. You can still be lucky sometimes but it's not guaranteed anymore.

I get the jumbo breakfast when I'm here which is seven euro and includes tea and toast. I've never gotten the regular breakfast, but in my opinion there's just about enough in the jumbo. It usually consists of two rashers, three sausages, an egg, beans and chips. The breakfast there is still good. It's just that it used to be great.

RASHERS REVIEW: Alamo restaurant, 22 Temple Bar, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Alamo restaurant, 22 Temple Bar, Dublin 2, Ireland.

The large breakfast was €9.50. The breakfast was very tasty but wasn't enough for €9.50. There should have been more beans. The large breakfast looks big on a small plate. The mini breakfast looks too small on a big plate for €6.50.

The staff were kind and very helpful but the seats and tables were very close together which can make it difficult to get out if the place if full of people. It's a nice place to go for a meal with Mexican music playing in the background.

This breakfast roll was €3.75. It was O.K., but tastless. They could do more with it.

RASHERS REVIEW: Via Luigi de Maio, Sorrento, Italy.

Sorrento, Italy.

Looking for a fry-up in Sorrento? Try the cafe on Via Luigi de Maio; cannot recall the name as my head was hanging off me (the morning after a night of scoops in a great little psuedo Irish bar called Chaplans on Corso Italia). It's situated in Piazza S'Antonino and is the only 'snack bar' there. Not the greatest fry-up I've had - I had sausages, bacon , chips and toast, but then again it's tough finding a decent one outside Ireland\UK. Also a little expensive (about 15 for solids, 4 for tea and 4.50 for orange juice - crazy prices). Anyhoo, it did the job for me. Service is good and the place is very relaxing with seats outside on the square.

RASHERS REVIEW: Cafe Bliss, Montague Street, Dublin 2, Ireland

cafe Bliss, Dublin, Ireland.

Cafe bliss - still serving an amazing breakfast.

We reviewed Cafe Bliss on Montague Street back in April, and had the pleasure of re-revewing it again last week. The breakfast wrap is still as scrumptious as it was before. It is a wrap filled with cheese, sausage, rasher, egg and some pickle. As you can see it comes with a lot of chips and a little salad. Also included is toast and tea/coffee. Great value at less than a tenner (about 8 I think it was) and a very clean and friendly place too!
