March 8, 2008, Kyoto, Japan. This was our breakfast spread at Motonago Ryokan, a traditional Japanese-style inn. We splurged on this place - it's in Gion (ghee-own), a district famous for geisha - but it was well worth it. We chose the "Western-style" breakfast (we weren't feeling like sushi first thing in the morning), and our inn attendant brought us up a whole bunch of food, including a ceramic plate with an open flame beneath it for cooking some bacon and an egg. Delicious and lots of fun.

Nice, from now on I shall prepare all my breakfasts in that style. I like the "Western Style" breakfast title. You should try the "Northern Style" walrus cakes and ice juice.
