Perhaps a cucumber-dill or fennel-and-orange salad seems an odd morning choice—such hearty fare! But in Israel,
chopped salads and pickled veggies are standards on the breakfast table. Other items may include: tangy, fresh cheese (and many varieties of it), crusty bread, or yogurt made from delicious milk. The butter and citrus—
grapefruit, oranges, lemons—also seems to taste better in Israel.

Earlier this week, McDonald's officially launched their oatmeal. The little tub the
Maple and Fruit Oatmeal ($2.29) comes in says "Undeniably Delicious Oatmeal" under the Golden Arches logo—not the case. It's just so disturbingly sweet; McFlurry levels of sweet. I'd rather eat an Egg McMuffin any day of the week. And with a whoppin'
290 calories, which is pretty high considering there aren't even nuts involved, you might as well.

I've spent most of the last year looking for the best breakfast in the state of Arkansas for the
Arkansas Times. The fruits of my labor (the top breakfasts around the state plus a baker's dozen of pastry places) are in the current issue of the
Times. But which of these were my favorites? Here's my personal Top 10.

Stanley was the first restaurant to serve fresh-made food after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005. Chef
Scott Boswell, who'd been running the highly acclaimed, upscale
Stella, had been planning the unveil of its causal counterpart Stanley (and the "Stanley Burger"). But when the storm left Stella in shambles and the dining market in disarray, it became his only option—and Stella's saving grace.

Photograph from steve.wilde on Flickr I'm headed to Greece tomorrow, and was curious what I'd be eating for breakfast over the course of ten mornings. A little research proved that Greeks don't really do breakfast given the late lunching (between 3 and 4 p.m.) and dinnering (after 9 p.m.). Coffee sweetened with honey and a cigarette seems pretty standard, and if food has to be involved, then maybe a piece of pita or bowl of yogurt. This photographer went for DIY pita sandwiches, one with honey, and the other with ham and cheese, when on the Greek isle of Rhodes. Anything else I should look forward to?

Photograph by smoothdude on Flickr There is something beautiful about this English breakfast, photographed by Daniel Krieger in Maidenhead yesterday morning. I feel tubby just looking at it. While the spread of yolk-popping eggs, fried bread, sausage, beans, chips, and a tomato can seem like a mess of things—plus the toast squeezes in there, "wait for me!"—it looks so clean and methodic. Krieger says it's one of the better English breakfasts he's had, but get this. One of his favorites is at Chip Shop in Park Slope, Brooklyn, which he believes actually rivals this one.

It's early as I write this. Strike one. My mind is fried from all the turkey coverage of the last two weeks. Strike two. But when I look at this "breakfast of champions" created by Rebecca of Ezra Pound Cake, I experience a moment of clarity. A singularity of purpose. And that purpose is to procure the ingredients for this cheese-grits chile relleno dish and knock one out of the park. I mean, look at that thing. Based on a recipe by Matt Lee and Ted Lee, it's all roasted poblano peppers (yum) filled with cheese grits (also yum), topped with roasted tomato gravy (oh, yeah). Plus, don't you love it when a food also serves as a serving...
