Brekkie in Melbourne 墨爾本的早餐
My daughter 
We ordered three different dishes. My wife ordered Veggie Breakfast--scrambled eggs, with button mushrooms, roasted tomato, hash brown, house-baked beans and baby spinach.
Whereas my daughter chose "Three Amigos"--smashed avocado on toasted sourdough with poached eggs, haloumi, sweet corn salsa and chipotle dressing.
I selected the shop's signature dish: Charlotte's brekkie--bacon, scrambled eggs, avocado, topped with corn salsa and hollandaise on thick rye bread.
This brunch is certainly a treat to me. Tasty as it is, I as a sojourner in a foreign place start to miss what I normally have for my breakfast in rural Taiwan, such as mantou (steamed bun), baozi (stuffed steam bun), scallion crepe, pan-fried buns, congee (rice porridge), Taiwanese style noodle soup, lurou fan (rice with braised minced pork or soy-stewed ground pork with rice), shaobing (baked flatbread), youtiao (deep-fried dough stick).
今天上午，從坎培拉回來渡週末假期的小女
我們仨各自挑選想吃的餐點。內人選了蔬果早餐，我點了店𥚃的招牌早餐，女兒則挑了名為「三好友」早餐。我們也各點一杯拿鉄咖啡。
這家館子空間不大，卻很溫馨，生意不錯。老闆是亞裔澳人，不諳華語，待客非常親切。
如此豪美的早餐與我和老伴平常在家手作的早餐差別很大。在館子𥚃吃著吃著，客居異郷的我不禁懷念在南投小鎮常吃的樸素、多樣、可口的早點：饅頭、包子、蔥油餅、水煎包、意麵、稀飯、滷肉飯、燒餅、油條等。
