: : Another question from the Brit-coms on PBS: what do you get when someone serves a "full English breakfast"?

: The full heart attack on a plate - bacon, sausages, fried eggs, fried bread, tomatoes, mushrooms and anything else there's room for. I go for the vegi-sausage version myself so I'm not an authority, but I get the impression that the full English is easier to find in Ireland these days.

And that would be called an Ulster Fry;
2 Rashers of Bacon
2 Sausages
2 Tomatoes
4 Mushrooms
2 Eggs
1 Soda Farl (the flat version of soda bread)
2 Potato Farls (Irish potato bread)
