In reply to the discussion: 14 Breakfasts from around the world in pictures [View all]Jenoch
(7,720 posts)103. I remember the same breakfasts in Germany.
The eggs were soft-boiled and in a cloth napkin in a basket. I was there on business with my father. My parents had been to Germany a few years before and my mother really liked those eggs.
My dad and I were up early one day and saw some stainless steel egg cups like those at the hotel in a winsow display in the town square..We went in and attempted to buy those egg cups for my mother. It turned out the store was selling cupboards and full kitchens and the egg cups were just props. They gave the nutty Americans the egg cups without charge.

That did *not* look like biscuits in the "Southern" breakfast....more like toasted English muffins.
