\"hotel<\/a><\/p>\n

A hotel breakfast or hotel buffet, no matter how diverse, can often feel and look a bit boring. Even though the food served, such as scrambled eggs, hash browns, cereal, fruit and muffins, is all delicious \u2013 no doubt about that \u2013 the presentation is something that has already been seen. \u00a0Luckily, with just a few nifty breakfast hacks, you can turn your plain old breakfast into a new, fun experience. The important thing is to step out of your comfort zone and be ready to accept new challenges.<\/p>\n

A new twist on cereal and fruit breakfast<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead of serving simple cereal with some fruit, you should make a yogurt parfait<\/a>. Not only does this mixture of cold cereal, yogurt and fruit look super cute and chic, but it also tastes amazing. Simply layer sliced fruit, cereal and yogurt in a transparent glass or bowl and add a drizzle of either honey or maple syrup on top, for some added sweetness. Alternatively, you can even top it all off with fresh mint leaves or some lemon zest and ginger.<\/p>\n

Borrow an idea or two from the food industry giants<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taco Bell has recently come up with a genius idea \u2013 they incorporated waffle taco in their breakfast offer. So, why not borrow this idea for your hotel? Instead of simply offering waffles, eggs and sausage, you can combine them in a mouth-watering sandwich<\/a>. Place one waffle on the plate to serve as your sandwich base, add some barbecue sauce, veggies, cheese, fried eggs and cut the sausage so it fits the waffle. Finally, top it all off with the other waffle and voila!<\/p>\n

Surprise everyone with a banana split breakfast<\/strong><\/p>\n

This amazing dessert-inspired breakfast is among the favorites of children and adults alike. However, you can give it a little twist by using a firm Greek yogurt, slicing the banana, adding a couple of scoops of peanut butter and some granola or berries. A single mint leaf on top will make it look like a delicious, robust piece of art. Your guests won\u2019t be able to resist this treat, and the best thing is that it\u2019s super easy to make!<\/p>\n

Rethink waffles<\/strong><\/p>\n

Who says that waffles always have to taste the same? Offer your guest a chance to decide how they want to customize their waffles, taste-wise. Then, once you have all the orders, put the waffle batter into a separate bowl, add to it whatever your guests ordered \u2013 peanut butter, sprinkles, chocolate, nuts, fruit, berries, etc. \u2013 and then pour it into the waffle maker. This way your guests will be free to completely customize their waffles and enjoy this old favorite in a completely new way.<\/p>\n

Give boiled eggs a bit of devilish charm<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead of serving plain old boiled eggs, you can offer deviled eggs with a variety of stuffing. Simply boil the eggs, peel them, cut them in half, take the yolk out and mix it in with a variety of ingredients before you pour them back into the egg. You can even prepare this meal a day earlier, as they taste better when served cold. To avoid risking your eggs getting spoiled make sure you have a quality cold storage device, such as the latest Bosch French door refrigerator<\/a>, where you can properly keep them and use them when needed. Contemporary refrigerators not only allow you to divide different ingredients by temperature zones to keep them fresh longer, but also boast advanced energy-efficiency features.<\/p>\n

Desserts can get an upgrade as well<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead of serving just the classic ice cream in a cup or plain old pudding, give them a little twist. For example, you can serve vanilla ice cream topped off with olive oil (trust us) and a crunched granola bar; or you can cover a warm strawberry pudding with cold chocolate topping and add some freshly-cut strawberries on top. Alternatively, you can even encourage your guests to DIY their dessert on sight.<\/p>\n

Offer pizza bagels<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone loves bagels, and everyone loves pizza, so there really is no excuse not to try this one out. Take a bagel, cut it in half horizontally and cover both sides with tomato sauce. Next, grade some mozzarella and parmesan on top and put it in the microwave until the cheese melts completely. You can even add fresh basil, olives and cherry tomatoes on the side.<\/p>\n

Include bruschetta in your offer<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lot of hotels forget all about this healthy yet simple breakfast option. Bruschetta is one of the most delicious mixes of fresh ingredients and a variety of spices. So, surprise your guests by including this easy-to-make specialty in your offer. Trust us, your chefs will thank you since it\u2019s so easy to make, and your guests will be swept off their feet.<\/p>\n

As you can see, there\u2019s really no need to offer your guests the same breakfast experience as everyone else does. Instead, provide them with a memorable and unique experience which may even encourage them to come back to your hotel the next time they are in town.<\/p>\n
