il Giardino Romantico

上個星期，跟朋友說好星期天要來大家強力推薦的Egg Café吃英式早餐。因為是我提議的。原本要在星期天之前找到這間餐廳。可是萬萬想不到他竟然這麼隱密。還好利用Google找到了這間的位置。當天早上跟兩位住同棟的flatmate出發還是順利的找到了。

Last week, I suggested that we come to Egg Café for breakfast, as it was highly recommended by the locals.  Since I was the one who recommended it, I figured I should figure out where it was located.  However, I had no idea how hidden it was.  Fortunately, I found its location using Google Map, and found it with little difficulty on the day.


完全沒有顯示店名的招牌。
No "Egg Café" written on the sign.


非常隱密的地方。
Very tucked away...

點餐前我一直很怕他食物給太多我會吃不完。在得知友人他們也點了全套早餐之後，我也鼓起勇氣點了全套早餐。心裡一直祈禱自己一定要吃完！以份量來說£4.20的價錢已經物超所值了。何況他是真的很好吃。

I wondered if I could ever finish a full breakfast.  With two of my other friends ordering that, I took the challenge and also ordered a full breakfast.  I kept hoping I could finish the whole thing.  For what was given, £4.20 was already a great deal.  Most of all, it really was a delicious meal!


全套早餐包括：土司、蛋、豆子、香菇、跟素香腸。外加一杯熱茶/咖啡。背景是友人點的pancake.
Full breakfast includes: toast, eggs, beans, mushrooms, and veggie sausages. Plus a cup of tea/coffee.  That's pancake in the background.

看到這個份量，我心裡又開始慌張：『我真的吃的完嗎？』。沒想到，邊吃邊聊、邊聊邊吃，沒多久我只剩下四分之一的土司沒啃完。因為太撐了，所以還是放棄。不過如果我的肚子更爭氣點肯定是可以吃完的！這天我的肚肚表現的真不錯！不過這餐過後，我們所有的人應該到晚上都沒有喊肚子餓。

When I saw how much food was on the plate, I still kept wondering if I could ever finish it all.  Somehow, while chatting, I suddenly realized that I only had a quarter of a toast left on my plate.  As I was 120% full already, I had to give that up.  If I had a bigger stomach, I know that I could have easily finished the whole thing.  Nonetheless, I was very satisfied with my accomplishment.  After this meal, I believe none of us got hungry again for a very long while.

：這餐過後，我的食量大增。那一盤的食物竟然將我的肚皮撐大了。害我在寢室有事沒事就在找東西吃。無時無刻都覺得肚子空空的。這下你們可以放心，我吃的健康，量又多。回台灣後說不定變成兩個Celeste了。[希望不要啦...]

After this meal, my appetite expanded significantly.  I have been finding myself always hungry, always looking for food to fill my stomach.  It always feels empty somehow.  You can surely stop worrying about my diet here.  Not only am I eating healthy foods, I'm also eating way too much.  Who knows?  I might become twice the size I am now when it's time to leave.  [Hopefully not...]
