I thought this chocolate danish was really good! The mini chocolate chips were small enough to melt in the sunshine. Mmm…

Chocolate croissant – Residenza Gens Julia
With orange juice and coffee.
Residenza Gens Julia, Rome ITALY
I really liked this place! It was centrally located and the accommodations were wonderful. All the staff were super friendly, much made out stay very enjoyable. They also had a selection of pastries for breakfast. We usually just grabbed-and-go because we wanted to get out to see the sites.
Speck and brie ravioli – AC Hotel Genova
With butter and sage. €9
AC Hotel Genova, Genoa ITALY
This was actually pretty good! I liked the sage flavor that came through, and the pasta was cooked nice and al dente.
Mediterranean salad – AC Hotel Genova
Primo sale cheese, tuna, olives, and croutons. €10
AC Hotel Genova, Genoa ITALY
This salad was simple, but tasty enough. The ingredients were pretty good and it was a sizable salad. I ordered the dressing on the side.
Breakfast buffet – AC Hotel Genova
Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, chocolate croissant, cheese, fruit, orange juice, and coffee.
AC Hotel Genova, Genoa ITALY
This buffet was better than most, and they had a pretty good selection of food. The servers were really friendly too.
E&J Wedding dinner buffet – Royal Kona Resort
Roast beef, Island chicken, Island fish, butterflied shrimp, green salad, penne salad, three bean salad, and much more!
Royal Kona Resort, Kailua-Kona HI
I don’t usually like dinner buffets at hotels/weddings, but this it was delicious and I was really surprised at all the different food items that they offered. There was SO much food that I think I only had a plate and a half (which is good for me, hehe).
Breakfast buffet – La Quinta Inn
Scrambled eggs, biscuit and gravy, sausage. Complimentary
La Quinta Inn, Oakland CA
Ugh, I didn’t enjoy this very much. I’m no hotel snob, but La Quinta certainly isn’t my first hotel choice. The food was marginal and the crowd was pretty rough. 😦
Breakfast buffet – Hampton Inn & Suites
Scrambled eggs, sausage patty, breakfast potatoes, and wheat toast. Complimentary
Hampton Inn & Suites, Redding CA
Their offerings at this Hampton Inn were pretty basic. They even had the gross scrambled eggs that feel and taste like they’ve been boiled or something. I didn’t expect much more for Redding though, lol!
Breakfast buffet – Hilton Santa Clara
Scrambled eggs topped with diced ham, red bell peppers, cheese and scallions. Sausage and breakfast potatoes. Complimentary
Hilton Santa Clara, Cupertino CA
This breakfast wasn’t very good. And the lounge was full of loud and obnoxious kids. Ugh!
Breakfast buffet – Hilton Sonoma Wine Country
Cheese blintz, breakfast potatoes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, goat cheese. Complimentary
Hilton Sonoma Wine Country, Santa Rosa CA
Ugh, this wasn’t very good. Everything was dry and not very warm. The blintz was especially lifeless.
Breakfast buffet – Hilton Garden Inn Cupertino
Breakfast potatoes, bacon, scrambled eggs. Complimentary
Hilton Garden Inn Cupertino, Cupertino CA
This was gross except for the bacon! The eggs were super wet, the salsa tasted old, and the potatoes (actually, everything) was super cold. Lame. The old lady servicing the dining area was really sweet though. Slow, but sweet.
Breakfast buffet – Renaissance Beijing Wangfujing Hotel
Shrimp dumplings, Shangahi soup dumplings, sausage, bacon, Shanghai dumplings, tomato, potato puff. Complimentary in Executive Lounge
Renaissance Beijing Wangfujing Hotel, Beijing CHINA
Final breakfast in Beijing. After a few days, I got kinda bored with the selection at the Executive Lounge, but I still appreciated that it was complimentary. 🙂
Scrambled eggs.
