That last restaurant is amazing, I can see why it’s best rated, the waiter was so kind and friendly to everyone. Their portions and price is the best from all three and the whole vibe of the place is great and very welcoming.
That waiter is actually the owner of the place
@@Mammutidae even more fantastic! you can clearly see he's very passionate about his establishment
@@Mammutidae Yeah I've seen this place in a Jolly (KoreanEnglishman) video with SortedFood!
That's Nev Pelicci Junior
That fried bread tho is a winner
Having visited Pellicci's today, I can confirm that it's as good as they say, and Nev is even nicer in person. The way he made an effort to talk to every table, see how they're doing, ask about the food, it was perfect service. A generous man, and a fantastic breakfast place. 10/10
Pellici, curiously, of Italian origin.
He sounds fantastic!
This is what makes a day in London, worth living for
London is of Italian origin

I really feel that only the Brits and us Aussies truly understand the greatness of beans on toast.
That's because Aussies are just upside down Brits. The yanks ruin Beans with molasses and cant make bread for shit.
México but switch bread with tortilla
its because the yanks have incredibly sweet beans its not the same as ours
Dont forget kiwis as well, we eat beans on toast here
@@skidlinerz paddies too
Just the man at E Pellicci made my heart so happy. I want to go to that restaurant right away. seemed to have so much joy for people and the food. Great Episode.
Jolly advertised it too
Well then marry him
These two are just naturals. The awkwardness, the legit interactions, the honesty. this is just a good series
This is what happens when the hosts, the production team, and writers are all men. It's awkward and kinda hard to watch but it's real

For those non British viewers there is four variations of cooked breakfast. The English, the Scottish, the welsh & Irish breakfast. All great, and all come slightly different variations of the cooked breakfast.
The English breakfast is normally black pudding, the Scottish comes with haggis and their own square sliced sausage. The Welsh is normally with laverbread and the Irish normally comes with white pudding.
A London breakfast is different.
It's a London Grill made up of 90% quality meat products.
@@skyemac8 Full Welsh Breakfasts usually have the same stuff as an English breakfast, but with the addition of either Laverbread or a Welsh Rarebit, or the pork sausages are substituted with Glamorgan Sausages, which are Welsh cheese sausages basically.
@@striderwhiston9897Welsh rarebit doesn't go on a Welsh breakfast that is a meal in its own right
Kippers by chance?
I am from east and can you tell me what are those black cookie kind of thing is?
I know the internet likes to joke about British food but I really want to be in a random British restaurant eating a proper Full English with tea at least once in my life. They always look so good.
Easy to make at home and amazing when eaten late at night.
@@jennifertselentis4755 I second this! I've made 2 English breakfasts in the last month or two and plan on many, many more. It's lovely to fry up a large meal like this on a lazy day when you can just relax as late in the morning as you feel like while sipping on some hot tea. 😁👌
Often whenever Americans mock it, I'm like at least we have food regulations and it isn't as processed and chemicalised
@@ashhabimran239they talk smack about our food bc they never tried half the shit they talk about.
Or they pull their stereotypes from cookbooks from the victorian era
@@ashhabimran239brits are even fatter than americans and eat mcdonald’s
My (late) dad was an Englishman. Living in NZ we still ate lots of real english food when we were growing up. I have such happy memories of eating things like baked beans and bubble & squeak.
It's nice that your parents kept the traditions around for you guys to grow up with
The owner of E Pellicci (Nev) is such a warm and hospitable host - you can tell how proud he is of his restaurant and the food that he serves. Feeding people and keeping them happy is obviously in his blood. Not surprising that his business is doing so well.
All of them, or nearly all, curiously, of Italian origin.
fantastic character, i wish all resturant owners were as passionate as him.

I think the owner of the last breakfast is the husband of The Hotel Inspected...Same Surname..Love all her videos...greetings from South Africa
@@marynajamison2607 No, I'm afraid you are mistaken.. her name is Alex Polizzi not Pelicci, she is the niece of Sir Rocco Forte, the family owner of the Forte group of luxury hotels
As individual hosts, Harry and Joe are fantastic; brought together on this, they're perfect vessels for their American and UK cultures, and this series has been a joy to watch. Really hope we see more of them together, as well as more location/cultural variations in the future.
Nicely put!
Americans hold forks weird
He has great banter for an American to be honest. I'm impressed.
@@joshuataylor3550 My dad always called, I'm guessing British style, military style here. He still holds his fork like the British do alot, learned it in basic training.
The 'formal' way that we hold our forks is just awkward to me.
Hallo gaes
Joe discovering and enjoying beans with toast is amazing because thats precisely why its in a full english, its to complement the toast, sausage, mushrooms and bacon combine all in a single bite for the best way to enjoy a full english.
I visited London for the first time a few months ago, and of all the full English breakfasts I ate (there were many) I think E Pellici was possibly the best of them. Great little place and you can feel the warmth, the sense of community and the history in its walls… BUT! It’s cash only! You do have to be wary of that! I had no idea and it put me in quite a bind at the very last moment. Thankfully they were so kind and understanding about it, but definitely come prepared beforehand. It was the only time/place I was not able to use my US credit card for my entire visit to the UK.
I always travel with a few hundred dollars cash. I usually redeposit it when I return home, but you never know.
Loved how clearly stressed and unsettled Joe was in the third place with all the bustle😂
Hilarious!
That place was loud and I think you have to be in the right mood. Especially bad if you got a splitting hangover. Loved watching it.
Why was the server shouting at them when taking their order?! 😂
@@RichardBarclay I would have been out the door so fast!
Yes
lol same, its funny because if you've grown up in and around pubs and cafes in the uk, you are incredibly used to that enviroment
The energy of the host at that last restaurant was fantastic. Need more people like him in the world
He’s a showman! Looks fantastic
Bit too much for me, would find it too much lol but obviously preference
It's a great place run by great people. I took my Dad in there years ago and he loved it. It was one of the staff members birthdays and they literally sang happy birthday three times whilst we were in there. It was so much fun.
I went in there a month ago, he's always there and he is that enthusiastic in person as he is on camera. Really nice guy and the breakfast is awesome in there.
I was going to comment this, much better than the young people up my way that throw your plate on the table and you don't even get a smile from in my opinion.
I'm American and I have tried adding fried tomato to my breakfast (Typical eggs and bacon) and it is really good, now I do it often.
What kind of tomato? Most of the tomato varieties in the US have been selectively bred to look good but taste bland.
The American guy is one of the most American guys ever. Doesn't like broccoli in his breakfast, gets excited about fried food, says he's from Italy but has no idea what part or where, haha.
yeah brits don’t like fried food nor do they get excited for it
@@rogerbee1234567fish and chips
So good to see these two together again, this London series is fantastic, I hope we see an American version this year!
I second that!
Yes to that I'd love to see that sooooo much
👏
YEEEEEEHAAAAA to that
@@DMoneyB3ASTACE I third that!
"Is tea part of the experience?"..... Oh dear Joe... Out of all the things to know about British culture, that would have been the one thing...
Yeah , stop saying chai tea and naan bread too
@@teteakhiangte6015 yes please!!!

Watching this made me put E Pellicci at the top of my list for places to go when I finally made it to the UK last week, and it did not disappoint! This is not played up for CZcams - this is the genuine way you will be treated if you go there! The food was great and the whole experience made my entire trip!
places such as E Pellicci is a great motivation for me to wake up and eat breakfast early. i'm quite on the side of a silent dining but with such hospitality of a host it is inevitably for them to running a full house every morning. quality video presentation as always!
I'd be interested to hear whether you get that sort of treatment without a camera crew with you. Does look like a great spot though
As a Londoner I have a full fried breakfast 3-5 days a week. Usually won’t need any lunch or anything else to eat till late evening. I love the fact he was so curious and generally interested in the traditional quirks.
When I used to do a lot of manual work I use to have a big fry up each day.
3-5 a week jesus
being a londoner is no excuse for that hahah bosh
Heart attack on a plate
They say a fried breakfast is okay first thing in the morning as the body has all day to work it off, although still not the best idea too regularly 😜 but still great in its place!
I love this, hoping to see Joe to be forced to eat roast dinners next. Seriously get all the food wars presenter's to do these in America, Japan and India I will watch!
Edited toast dinners to roast dinners!
Oh defo a Sunday roast needs to be the next one Harry introduces Joe to!!
I've been living in the UK since 2007, and my all time time favourite British dish is the 'English Breakfast'. Glad I stumbled upon this video. 'bubble and squeak' is actually new to me; looks yum!
I think Bubble and Squeak as part of a Full English is very much a London thing, i've not seen it like that anywhere else. In fact, it's pretty rare to see Bubble and Squeak in a restaurant, most places. My family only tends to have it once a year, on Boxing Day, we use the left over roast potatoes and Brussel Sprouts from Christmas to make it.
@@markc1793 roast potatoes + Brussel Sprouts sounds yummy too
I think it goes back to war time, when poor used to cook left overs, rather than throw them away.
@@onecupof_tea Is it? Thank you
Years ago, there was a "Greasy spoon" transport cafe on the A38 about a mile from my house. Spending a months wages on beer then sobering up at 03:30 there...that was epic. The tea cups held about half a gallon of tea. The food was, as expected... swimming in grease.... fooking marvellous!
Since Joe doesn't like sitting outside or loud eateries, I just wanna see him and Nikhil in a 'Joe visits India' Food Tours series to see him absolutely lose his mind :)
That's a great idea xD
I definitely would love India to be the next food tour.
What if he had to eat all his food while on a bicycle built for two with a little table on it to put the food on. That would be fun and bit different. Or in Britain you would say it is “dynamo”
Lol. Beeeeeeeeeeeeep!
The culture shock would be next level. Though Joe should definitely take some stomach medication if they plan to go for street food
Joe liking beans on toast is a huge win for the Brits!
Yeah, he said that in the video
I don’t get why people hate it, it’s brilliant
I've never seen an American hate it after actually trying, they always hate the concept because they have different beans to use, then they try and love it
@@mitch_rules3497 The vast majority of people who claim to hate it, haven't tried it and just hate the idea. Just people jumping on anti UK food bandwagon.
Yeah I know he’s tried to like marmite but maybe beans on toast could be the marmite gateway…because toast, a small amount of marmite, beans and cheese on top is the god tier beans on toast
I actually made english baked beans in my one pot today and had them on toast for dinner w scrambled eggs and a jalepeno cheddar johnsonville sausage. It was spectacular. (Navy bean in straight water from dry -40 min pressure cook.) Natrual release... Perfection😊 Really impressed at just how goid the beans on toast actually is. Didn't even miss the potatoes.
As a British kid I always just assumed the whole world ate baked beans on toast but now I realise why people question it.
There is just something magical about proper baked beans on a nice golden brown piece of buttered toast with freshly ground black pepper and a sprinkling of salt on top. Heaven!
Don't they sell tins of Heinz baked beans in America? Heinz is an American company.
@@onecupof_teaThey do. But its a different recipe. Much sweeter
Wow. I only found Pellicci's a couple of years ago, but whenever I'm back in London for business I make a beeline for the Bethnal Green Road. Last time over, I gave Terry's a spin - a worthy substitute - and would also recommend fully Café 338 on the same block as Pellicci. I reckon they get a lot of spillover trade when Pellicci's full, but it's no inferior alternative.
Lovely stuff.
The vibe in the Italian owned spot was amazing
I would of been scared to be in that shop, hahaha that rapid fire would of hit me like a truck...
@@mixeddrinks8100 it’s fierce. I’m lucky there a lovely Italian deli and cafe in my hometown and the owners are very similar.
You guys are a solid 3 for 3 with this series....I'm legit excited for future episodes at this point. I really hope this carries on for multiple seasons 🙏
Thanks for the new video! I’m looking forward to seeing what other content you post! Always good to learn as much as you can!
I moved to Ireland 7 years ago and before that I didn't dislike the beans but I didn't go out of my way to buy them.. Within 6 months it's one of my favorite parts of the dish... It ties everything togheter
Pellicci's is fantastic. When I visited about a decade ago, I went there twice in one day getting the best full english ever for breakfast and a phenomenal chicken escalope for dinner. Would go back in a heartbeat.
E Pellicci's is fantastic. The family are all so warm and friendly. Nev (the server in the video) is absolutely amazing too. Just a wonderful wonderful experience. You can go off menu with Nev, he won't write it down, will get it absolutely spot on & will confirm the exact same when paying too.
Love going there when I can. But is hard to get a table there if you don't get the timing right.
Joe and Harry really are my favourite combo of 2023 ❤ 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
I'm full just watching them eat. Holy wow. Mad respect to you guys for trucking through all three of those, and big ups for letting me learn a bit more about British cuisine
Cuisine, lol.
@@onecupof_tea ?
Comment of the day 👍
I grew up near Pellicci and they put their heart and soul into the business. Living in Warsaw , Poland now seeing them made me home sick. May the family keep running that business forever.
I love this series, and great to see you both together in person!
As a Brit, I have to say that while bubble and squeak is traditional, you'll basically never see it outside of London. As someone that travels a lot across the UK, there are variations, but 95% of breakfasts will have hash browns, with about 4% of others having chips as an option.
Bubble and squeak should be made with the left overs from Sunday lunch, ideally served with the meat and gravy, the greatest is on Boxing Day when you have lots of veg and potatoes and best of all brussel sprouts.
Can confirm, I’m from Liverpool and the thought of having bubble and squeak on ur brekkie is madness lmao that’s a whole meal on its own 😂
Wrong.. I’m from County Durham and while we don’t necessarily have it with breakfast, it IS something we eat regularly on a Monday with the leftovers.. 👍🇬🇧
I seem to find chips as an option more often if the meal is labelled as an "all day breakfast" on the menu.
@@Ionabrodie69 I only live about 15 minutes out of Durham and honestly never have heard of it. Personally would have said it was more of a Southern/London thing due to that.
Just a little bit of info on black pudding, the pork blood is a solid throughout the whole process. Pork blood is almost always sold and used in its congealed form, which basically makes it behave in a similar fashion to ground meat, which makes it a perfect additive to sausages.
The first time I went to E Pellicci was in early 2019 as I was working nearby - I had an amazing experience, but had no idea it was popular. It's now EVERYWHERE! They definitely deserve the hype, but unfortunately, it also mean that chances of getting a table there are now extremely low :( Glad I managed to try their food before it got so popular
I've never had a problem getting a table at E Pellicci. Yes there are queues at times and you might have to wait but it's never that long
I wanna see Joe bring Harry to the U.S for a full southern BBQ platter meal.
Don't forget the beans 😂
Like beans and toast, Joe n' Harry are an unbeatable combo. Really glad they came up with this series. 💯
E Pellici is awesome but the best experience is with the cook there. Extremely welcoming friendly crew trying to feed you with good food. Absolutely lovely. Love from Hong Kong ❤
I tried blood pudding and beans on the toast for the first time when I was in the UK. I must say I was impressed, they are both really good. Also haggis isn’t bad either when I tried it in Scotland. Honestly I feel like people need to try them as they aren’t as bad as people thinks
They're very much in the category of "try it before you know what's in it". I think a lot of people either won't try them after they know what's in them, or knowing what's in them taints their experience and puts them off them.
@@markc1793I mean even before then I knew what they were, but I’m also not picky. I love food so much so it takes a lot to turn me away
Yep, shit on paper sounds awful but tastes awesome. British food deffo gets a bad rap in the US, but its all pretty damn tasty and deffo works in our climate.
I don't think Scottish people even eat haggis, apart from Burns night. But you're right about fried black sausage, and eat with fried bread and bacon.
Try Dinuguan and puto. Its the Philippine version of blood pudding and toast.
Pellicci seemed awesome.immediately fell in love with his vibes.way to go brother.the world really needs it.cheers.
The beans and more specifically, the beans sauce - are like a lubricant for the meal. Similar to the yolk of the egg. You save the toast to the end and use it to mop up the beany eggy juices left on your soon to be bare naked plate.
True but I don't mind a more traditional one without the beans
These two guys have been become my new favourite combo in food videos ❤ we need more food exploration with them please...
I actually love these guys. These 2 on the packet would probably be the funniest thing of all time💀
Thank you for sharing breakfast there at so cool places. When I come back then I have to look forward in going to a few places there again. ☺ Smile
A traditional homemade fry-up is supposed to be heavy on calories, because a back-in-the-day breakfast was the meal that set you up for the day, and it's made of cheap ingredients. My granddad would add fried chipped potatoes because, again, it's cheap and filling, and a post-war staple for big or working class families, with easily sourced foods! That's the essence of an English breakfast - bubble and squeak is only added if that's what you had for dinner (tea) the night before. Hash browns are an extra. Also go to the English countryside to get quality better sausages! - 11:13
Pellicci is f*cking divine. Not just the fry-up but literally everything on the menu as well as the atmosphere. Was kind of suprised to see bubble and squeak featured in the first two, further north it’s usually hash browns and fry bread
I'm almost as south as you can get and bubble and squeak is nearly always an optional extra except in the vegetarian option even down here.
The best Full English I have had is at the Bridge Cafe in Guildford, I have eaten there on many occasions over 20 odd years and it’s always excellent.
Thanks so much for the barcode!!😊😄 It was so fun to look at what the British drink! I def didn’t know they liked Japanese matcha! The rasberry heaven sounded amazing too!
Always good to see Harry and Giuseppe 😂😂
The owner of E. Pellicci seems like such a kind-hearted soul hat truly loved doing what he does! Makes me wanna book a ticket to London and have a full breakfast myself (although I don’t eat meat, so I’m basically SOL😂)
Obviously the meat version is traditional but everywhere you go will do a veggie breakfast variant which should be pretty good too, though more modern places or specifically veggie/vegan places might tend to be more inventive with their alternatives
It's quite easy to have a veggie version of English breakfast, most places will do that
It's worth going as a vegetarian, they have a variations without meat options.
When I introduced my daughters to a Full English a few years ago they were really against the beans, but I convinced them to give it a try. They were amazed at how well it works with the eggs and rashers.
Just found you - a really great video! Lovely guys and great fun to join you in THREE breakfasts! More please. x
Brilliant video again, you guys have great chemistry together, nice to see the contrasting choices of the breakfast too. Always good seeing Joe's take on English food.
Do sunday roasts next, food insider! Joe and Harry are such a dynamic duo, it'll be fun if you put them together again
I visited London January 2020, had English breakfast. Totally love it! And I am a bean defender as well! It does substitute ketchup really well
This brings back memories of eating at Pellicci's when I was living in London. Great to see that the place hasn't changed a bit. It was busy then and I'm sure that it's going to be even busier after this video!
One of things I love about traditional British meals is that you make each mouthful. Fish n chips, Roast, and full English. Each bite is a different combination. 😋
I'm 28 years old and I had no idea bubble and squeak is a traditional English breakfast item, I've always enjoyed hash browns as the potato element.
That's where hash browns originated from, mass produced plain to suit all taste buds bubble and queek
@@notme1345no it didn’t. Hash browns originated in America. Proper hash browns are made with raw shredded potato, seasoned and fried in a pan with butter until crispy on both sides. The hash browns we know in Britain are commercial, frozen varieties of that that have been through the kind of process you described, but they are definitely not based on bubble and squeak, which is an entirely different thing.
Pellicci's is on my Bucket List!!! OMG the breakfast looks amazing. Wish someone would invent smell o vision!!!!! The atmosphere and workers....it looks like a fun place with a great vibe to be in and the History especially with the celebs that go there and the fact The Kray Brothers had this as their breakfast place. Definately Guy Ritchie vibes!!!
I love the last guy. That shop looks amazing. Best English breakfast I had was at the lime tree hotel. Chased that feeling the whole rest of my trip
English breakfasts sure are something else. The amount of food you get is just outstanding.
No.
⬆️ 🤖
I'm always amazed how people can eat all this stuff in the morning.....
@@MDeLorienAgreed. For me, breakfast is a nice mug of tea. Lunch is a tuna sandwich. A plate of food this size is for 8pm.
@@roberthindle5146 im not saying you need a fully english every day but wow you must feel tired all the time if this is your diet. a cup of tea and a tuna sandwhich to hold you down until 8pm? lol ok
I love these Harry and Joe link ups! 🙂 Great to see them together again
They’re so cute with their bromance and matching-by-accident green jackets. 👯♀️
It all looks fantastic, I just don't think I can eat all of that, that is a lot of food and I am an American! Well done my UK friends! I will say a typical breakfast for me and part of it is that I am from Arizona USA but I eat scrambled eggs and I dump Cholula hot sauce on it and for me and my south western roots, it's a game changer. We're all different but we all have good food to eat and try. Would love to head to the UK and try that food man!
I add a good local tortilla to my Arizona breakfast.
I always love it when an American is open-minded and adventurous enough to try black pudding, and watching Joe really enjoying it was superb. Also loved that moment when Joe suddenly 'got' beans on toast with a full English - both his delight, and his almost guilty look, were priceless. I'm 100% with Harry on mushrooms - I either like mushrooms fully raw, or fully cooked, and hate that rubbery in-between nonsense. Great showcasing of the three restaurants, and I can totally see how Pellicci's took the win in the end, even with Joe's discomfort at the environment. You could see how Pellicci's just had that extra genuine care and enthusiasm, and that pretty much always goes into the food too - made with love, as some would say.
Growing up in Boston, MA, with Irish immigrant parents, we had a fry up breakfast twice a week. Black pudding, sometimes white pudding, tried to get "Irish bacon", like rashers, and "Irish sausages". We had a couple of Irish shops and a butcher that had the real stuff. Back as a very young kid, early 70s, even some of the supermarkets carried a black pudding, not the best quality. And we washed it all down with strong Barry's or Lyons "loose" tea brewed in the pot. Good stuff!
The best series yet, I could watch this for ages, these two really work off of each other, would love to see Harry visit America too
Joe & Harry are just a perfect hosting duo! J&H & Rhett & Link together would be phenomenal!
I love the show BTW!!! Great chemistry and great food!! You always make me want to cook what you're having!! 😋😋😋
Loved the video. The other day I had black beans left over from the day before and I had black beans on toast for breakfast..gorgeous...
I swirl a tiny bit of brown sauce in beans for extra flavor and they're great. I also really enjoy the grilled tomatoes, the acid functions as kind of a palate cleanser similar to orange juice. And the crunchiness of English toast is fabulous. Cooked breakfast is super!
I add a bit of cheese to my beans, some really strong cheddar. But I only have a full English maybe 2-3 times a year it's such a treat.
Was wondering why the last spot looked so familiar despite never having been to England myself. After a quick check I figured out that it was featured in a SortedFood video a few years ago as well as Jolly one more recently. Strongly suggest people watch the Jolly one for a good laugh; the main waitress in it was absolutely hilarious. (Nev, the waiter in this Insider video, also appears in Sorted's.)
Yesss I love Jolly 😁
Really enjoyed this video. Lovely stuff! 👏
good two pals enjoying breakfast good banter
Harry drinking Tea and Joe drinking Coffee. The perfect example of American and English Culture!
Maybe it's a London thing but I've never seen a full English breakfast with bubble and squeak. You might get an "all day breakfast" that includes chip/fries or if your lucky some hash browns on a normal breakfast but other than that I would say traditionally the only carbs would be beans and bread/toast/fried bread, with tomato (normally tinned), mushrooms in half not sliced, bacon, sausages, fried egg and black pudding, anything else is extra.
Liverpool here never seen bubble and squeak on a brekkie either.
Yeah, think this is definitely a London thing-hash browns and fried bread all the way, none of this squeaky nonsense
@@spinnigold Hash browns nah.
@@spinnigold Bubble and squeak is delicious. It needs to be crispy on the outside though. I like potato cakes/bread (boxty) like the Northern Irish have on theirs as well.
@@jujutrini8412 oh I like bubble and squeak. I just don’t want it for breakfast ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Last time I was in England (October 1978) they still served fish and chips on newspaper. I definitely wouldn't mind having some of that again along with a fine English breakfast.
Pellicci's Looked the best to me.
If they went to the north of England and try to find the best Yorkshire Pudding that would be a awesome episode.
Loved the epp. I feel you should of also gone to a high end restaurant to see how the full English has also evolved to be a fancy dining experience while staying staying with tradition. The last one was so warm and welcoming.
I ate breakfast at the ritz a few weeks ago, it was awful. Staff were lovely though, they let me keep a tiny pot of jam. A brekkie in Spoons genuinely would be a step up in comparison. I'm just glad it was a freebie through my work, not a hope in hell I'd pay over £50 for 3 slices of dried out bacon, toast, egg and tomatoes and a pot of tea 😂
. My father was putting up scaffolding on the ritz, and the nice kitchen staff handed them glasses of freshly squeezed orange juice. kind.
should have*
As an American. There is nothing more amazing than showing My British friends there is something more than plain beanes in this world.
Two pieces of bacon, 2 well-done fried eggs, 2 beef sausages, 1 spoon of baked beans, 1 spoon of beef mince or sheep kidney, 2 hash browns, 1 spoon of smashed avocado, 1 piece of wheat toast and three mugs of fresh orange juice. That's my breakfast at 0700 hrs in North Harare, Zimbabwe and it could me the full energy until 1600hrs.
Food Tours is just great vibes, please continue making them if possible.
10:06 the way he holds that fork!
Would be good if the future vids said what time they ate each meal at!
Thanks for this great podcast 👍
Amazing rapo with both of them.. Makes this show incredible
I love Harry and Joe shows, this series has been amazing, thank you. I was surprised to see short cut bacon though, I thought I would only see streaky. So much I don't know about England today, despite being a descendant!
No it’s back bacon. Streaky bacon is not traditional and is rarely found on a breakfast here.
Alright🎉🎉 another food tour I’m so excited I’m really like this new show idea its great to see joe and Harry together trying foods
Fried Bread is something else. I absolutely love Fried Bread with Beans (especially the Bean Juice), have got no Bacon or the other accompaniments here but those two I can eat forever
I've lived in Birmingham England for 73 years and a great lover of bubble and squeak but never heard of it on a full English (or if we have it for dinner a "fry up") but will definitely be trying it. 😊😊
Great Video 👍..Please also make US tour videos (best pizza burger etc.) That would be pretty good ❤️
Do this with all the four hosts in their home countries I'll happily watch
Neat episode. it's interesting seeing the different eating styles.
quality video presentation as always!☺😚
I probably have a full English/Irish about once every few months, black/white pudding and hash browns are a must for me, with tomato/brown sauce depending on mood and always Tabasco/hot sauce on my eggs…
Great to see you guys working together again, be great see a US visit!
Breakfast is my fave so I love a full English breakfast. I ate it a couple times when I went to London but I chickened out on trying the blood pudding. Everything else was so good but I did miss having some cholula or Tabasco.
