I think brandy is the only spirit one should have at breakfast, provided you are drinking strong coffee.

Like the misprint.

Oh, the mornings that I've woken and been revived with strong black coffee with an industrial sized brandy to 'add to the flavour'...!

I now have an image of a noel coward type wandering into a bank and asking "do be a dear and put all your money into this bag"

The Thai one wouldn't be a normal breakfast dish . Mint with fish would be a strange combination . They're more likely to have rice soup , fried doughballs , sweet coffee , sweet tofu drink , tea or something like that .
Unless they're upcountry where anything goes washed down with beer or rice whiskey !

Hendrick's served with a bit of cucumber as opposed to lemon/lime - it's delicious!

With or without tonic? (I appreciate that that may be a daft question.)

Foul with fresh unleavened bread.

Madame?

With tonic. It's a very different Gin, bit moooooooorish if you like it!

When I was back home in the Uk recently; after my marathon bacon fest I had fishfingers covered in Heinz tomato sauce squished inside soft white pan bread for breakfast ......... Magic!

Having been in various Thai locations and Singapore for brekkie every day for the last two weeks, I'm amazed at the shite people eat.

'Fried Fish Head in Tomato Sauce'

Kidding? No, it ****ing stank and was right next to the lovely looking waffles.
