Irishfag here.

Full English is absolute plebian heresy.

Full Irish is much better, we don't have baked beans (wtf are they even there for), and usually no veg (though it's becoming depressingly common to have a disgusting fried tomato or mushrooms in it), and we have white pudding as well as black pudding, which is amazing. Our sausages are also much better, Bong sausages are grey shit.

This breakfast is best experienced when you've had a few drinks the night before- your body is crying out for grease and protein, so you wolf it down.

Favourable mention must go to the Breakfast Roll, essentially a full irish in a baguette, which is hangover food like nothing you've ever seen.

I'm struggling to find a pic that's representative, but imo a good full Irish should have the following:
>sausages (Dennys are best)
>black pudding (Clonakilty is best, but individual butchers have different styles so its worth shopping around if you're in Cork or somewhere, as we have the English Market butchers)
>White pudding (as for black)
>Rashers (Dennys do great ones, but there are some fantastic smaller brands out there)
>Fried egg (scrambled is also acceptable. My personal preference is an egg fried on both sides)
>White toast (just buttered, no jam)
>Tea with milk. with or without sugar, according to taste (strong black Irish Breakfast tea- it's different to English Breakfast. Barrys make the best here, Lyons a shit)

Anything other than this is foreign heresy.

For those visiting Ireland who'd like a good one, if you're in Dublin then go to either
>Gerry's cafe (Montague St. just off Harcourt St.)
>The Kingfisher (Parnell st., I think. This is where Gerry Adams goes for breakfast, apparently)

They do they two best frys in Dublin, no question.

I can't find a good pic without loads of pleb shit like fried veg in it, but pic related is a decent example (with a poached egg, which is pretty acceptable)
