When I was in West Ireland recently, I was excited to find I was offered a Full Irish Breakfast at the hotel I was staying at. Now, I've had a Full English Breakfast so I know what that is all about, the issues here notwithstanding, so I thought I was venturing into some new territory. Not so! It was like a Full English, only served in Ireland. Possibly with

Hi Jackson,i have relatives in West Ireland,Skibereen,CO Cork,when we stay there we have Full Irish,but it has to be with Irish Soda Bread,i have been addicted to the stuff since childhood,and very often make my own because you can make it and be eating it in 45mins.I worked for years in a 5 star hotel,and on a regular basis younger chefs would say we should have beans and hash browns on the english breakfast menu,the head chef and the manager both said no,because it would no longer be a traditional English breakfast. the hotel has now been sold to a large chain,and yes they do the beans and hash browns for breakfast,but i still agree with my old head chef and the manager.And i love both black and white pudding!!

The chap who cooked my full Irish for me asked if I knew the difference between it and a full English. Apparently it's beans. Sometimes on an English, but NEVER on an Irish.

I think its also the black and white puddings.Think they're optional in English.The Scottish breakfast is very like the Irish one...I was expecting sommat fishy tho

I'd heard the 'no beans on Irish' thing... now I'm also confused by the 'Ulster Fry' - is that different again?   I heard one of them (think it's Ulster) needs to have a minimum amount of types of bread to be included?

BUBBLE AND SQUEAK!

uuuuuhhhhh, I will make that especially, I don't even pretend to cook summat  and  use the leftovers.   Finest tea ever.  

Ideal breakfaast for me is bacon, PROPER sausage, runny egg, mushies and tinned  tomatoes.  Although I do like just tomatoes on toast, so the toast goes all soggy  and  practically dissolves.
