While we are waiting for the first derives to be completed, an extract from our sister site; Beautifuldaze

Breakfast; always a good idea. It's been a photo trope of note ever since Stephen Shore went on his American Surfaces road trip. There are lots of motifs to play with here: plates of food, the arrangement of condiments, cafe art, clientele and so on.

Psychogeography, the study of how our environment and culture affect behaviour and feeling, is also interested in breakfast with several web sites exploring the nature of a 'good' breakfast. In the UK part of this is nostalgia for the old greasy spoon cafe and a past that is being replaced by multinational fast food outlets. There are people who spend their weekends seeking out new breakfast places, in the same way foodies seek out Michelin Star restaurants. One of the recent trends is for up-market reinventions of the traditional caff. In London the S & M chain fit the bill for those who want the bacon and egg in posh bread with a quiet ambiance, gingham tablecloths and Woolworth retro art.
