A loaded fry-up plate with eggs, sausage, and beans
🇮🇪 Munster
The full Irish breakfast is a weekend institution and a hangover's best friend: fried eggs, sausages, back rashers, black and white pudding, grilled tomato, mushrooms, baked beans, and buttered soda bread or toast, all on one groaning plate. Built to set you up for the whole day (or the day after).
