W3 Lov3 Gre3n Life !...HOLIDAY INSPIRATION Five of the best: Soho breakfasts

I'm so sorry that lately I haven't upload any new post related to WE LOVE GREEN LIFE.
so Today finally , I can give you some tips about how to have a healthy, tasty and english breakfast , without feeling hungry!

Feeling hungry? The Nadler Hotel's Philip Chambers picks his favourite breakfast haunts

The Full English 
This pop-up restaurant in Greek street is run by Michele Cremona, a true Soho original. Perfect for breakfast or afternoon tea, The Full English prides itself on responsibly sourced, free range British ingredients: dry cured bacon from Berkshire, large Somerset eggs and British pork, all home-cooked daily. The food is served on  hand-picked mix and matched bone china, the fruits of many a car boot sale search - this is where your granny’s teapot ended up!

Princi 
This  Milanese institution on Wardour Street, created by artisan baker Rocco Princi,  with an interior designed by Claudio Silvestrin, bakes all its handmade breads freshly every day. Signor Princi himself flies over every other week to ensure that the quality of his products are maintained at the highest. Busy at all times with lots of treats to choose from, make sure you dress up  and present your “bella figura” to fit in. It’s so good we get the Nadler’s breakfasts delivered from here.

Quo Vadis 
Head Waiter  Mike ensures your morning starts off properly either in the informal bar or the more elegant dining room. Freshly baked breads, home-made marmalade and bustling Dean Street outside the window.- what more could you ask for? How about 20% off your bill if you are staying at the Nadler Soho? If your Friday night out makes you miss breakfast the next day, their Saturday lunchtime wine club combines great food with wonderful half-priced wines picked by the owner’s wife.

The Breakfast Club 
The original egg -yolk-yellow fronted breakfast club filled with the owner’s childhood junk serves a great fry-up. A happy-go -lucky hotspot all hours of the day, breakfast takes centre-stage from a full English and a US variation featuring maple syrup pancakes,  to a Latin American breakfast burrito. The only downside is you need to get there early to beat the queues that go around the block every day of the week.

TAP Coffee 
Tap's ambition is to inspire a new coffee drinking culture, where the quality of the ingredients rule and the craft of the barista is recognised. I'm not sure  they have achieved their goal quite yet, but the distressed-urban chic décor and great coffee served with quirky antique spoons, definitely make this the go-to place for coffee lovers. Relax, play on your ipad (free wifi) and people- watch in a relaxed urban  setting,  as Wardour Street comes to life.

  • Method

  1. Step 1
    Rinse and drain rice 3 times or until water runs clear. Place in a sieve over a bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes to drain.
  2. Step 2
    Place rice and 1 1/2 cups cold water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cover. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 12 minutes or until water has absorbed. Remove from heat. Stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
  3. Step 3
    Meanwhile, place vinegar and sugar in a microwave-safe jug. Microwave on high (100%) for 30 seconds. Stir to dissolve sugar. Transfer rice to a large ceramic dish. Using a spatula, stir to break up lumps. Slowly add vinegar mixture, lifting and turning rice, until rice has cooled.
  4. Step 4
    Place 1 nori sheet, shiny-side down, on a sushi mat. Using damp fingers, spread 3/4 cup rice over nori, leaving a 2cm strip at 1 short end. Spread 2 teaspoons mayonnaise over centre of rice. Arrange one-quarter cucumber, avocado and carrot over mayonnaise. Using the sushi mat, roll up firmly to form a roll. Cut into 6 slices. Repeat with remaining nori sheets, rice, mayonnaise, cucumber, avocado and carrot to make 24 pieces. Serve with soy sauce.
  • Notes
Look for sushi rice and sushi mats in the Asian aisle of larger supermarkets.
