One of the best fry ups I’ve ever had. Haggis was banging. I still think about it when I’m daydreaming 🙏

La comida estuvo muy bien, pero demoraron bastante en traerla. Parece que se olvidaron porque llegaron otras personas después y comieron antes. Los mozos fueron amables también y todo estuvo delicioso. El desayuno es contundente.
