This will be my on the road breakfast/brunch en route to EWR, as we don’t care for the usual FF chains dotting I-80.
My PIC made himself a ciabatta with chicken, rosemary ham & cheese, while I toasted a couple slices of homadama, smooshed half an avocado on one slice, a kiss o’ Duke’s on the other, roti chicken, cheese 
I also decided to bring the leftover salad bc WTF not. The last two sumos for something sweet later 
Safe travels!!
Scramble with spring herbs (chives, tarragon). Garden asparagus. A sour-cherry crumble for something tart-sweet - cherries from last year’s backyard harvest (frozen).
Better late than never, the season of eating from our landscape has arrived.
You do it so well and so deliciously!!
Thank you! We got a slow start this year (still below 40 degrees in the morning), but I’m so ready for it!
Noice! I had a similar quick brekkie before heading out. A 10% Greek yogurt with perfectly ripe booberries.
No geezer buds to be found in Germany 
Brachs brand of Chocolate Stars look like they may no longer be made, but stores like Fleet Farm or Farm & Fleet or Menards have locally made US versions. Here’s a random Farm and Fleet store link with a package image, about $7. Note that Amazon has a “gourmet” version for more than 10x that - $70 per pound.
The link you provided for the Farm and Fleet chocolates look similar to the ones we get in Canada and I think the price is about what I paid. But $70 for a pound of chocolate?!? I know they are gourmet chocolate but I hope there is some gold dust in them for that price 
I found a picture of the exact brand that my mom used to buy. Neilson also made mint thins and chocolates with shaved coconut in them.
Our initial plans for today (and we had a few) did not shake out at all. When we left the house bright and early around 1pm 
— our internal clocks are still heavily delayed by the pesky jet-lag, I noticed a group of men outside our building, beers in hand. My immediate thought was “Oh, no! It’s Ascension Day” — which happens to also be Fathers’ Day here, and German fathers generally celebrate by lounging about all day with beers in hand, presumably to rest from the strenuous parenting they put in every day 
This also meant that every store is closed, as well the weekly markets — one of which we wanted to visit to get our sourdough fix & maybe pick up MOAR cheese and other sundry items. Nope.
We scooted northeast anyway, just in case, but the light traffic and dark storefronts we passed en route increasingly dampened our hopes to accomplish anything on our agenda 
We finally turned around and headed back to our hood, where a Späti (a small shop with essentials like booze, cigarettes, other beverages and the odd household staple, which has a special license in Berlin to be open at hours other stores are not) provided more water, beer, and a Very Important pistachio bar 
The ower informed us that today was neither Ascension nor Fathers Day (that would be May 29th), but the 80th Anniversary of the Liberation from National Socialism, which was scheduled to be a one-off, Berlin-only day of remembrance by the German parliament in 2023. A worthy day to remember if we are ever to learn from the past. Not holding my breath, personally.
We had our breakfast at home, then, after our 1-hour chilly scoot through town, where we also discovered this, oh my! 
No plans to visit, in case you were wondering.
Freezer spelt rolls with an abundance of seeds baked to crispy perfection in our oven, liverwurst, German bologna, smoked ham all from certified humane producers — a thing I very much appreciate about German supermarkets, some of the leftover cheese nubs, SBEs & delicious cold milk.
How many does that serve? Lotta eggs!
I thought 4 adults would have two eggs each, but about half was leftover.
Yes, it looks very filling. In a good way.
And a slice of our beloved sourdough with the fancy scallion cream cheese & smoked ham.
Eggs in a nest (Eggs fried with olive oil into scali bread) and a tomato and basil salad with Calabrian chiles.
Our first proper Berlin breakfast with all the usual suspects 
A cheese plate with Taleggio, Vacherousse, and a fabulously earthy, nutty Swiss.
A charcuterie platter 
with smoked ham & German bologna.
The best bread evah.
Liverwurst, the last of the mediocre vitello (all for my PIC), the old hunka Taleggio, Bulgarian feta-ish cheese (take note, @PedroPero!).
Landrahm aka Landcrack aka the best scallion cream cheese evah.
SBE & a slice of sourdough with Landcrack & German bologna. One of many slices…
Finally, drankage: OJ for my sweets, milk pour moi.
Why spend $$$ on brunch when you can feast like a queen at home?
Zackly.
No Fleisch- and Krabbensalat ? - the two things miss most for German breakfast (and eat a ton when back in Germany)
