Some of my friends tell me that with the B&B experience, they always expect a muffin of some sort in the morning, something they say B&B's are known for, or at least that's their impression. My question is - do you serve fresh muffins EVERY morning, even when the main entree is going to be some sort of french toast?
I'm working on menu planning for the Miami Boat Show where I have a "full house." On the morning that I will serve Strawberries & Cream French Toast and apple-smoked bacon, I am wondering whether I should even serve a muffin - the entree is already a bread-based dish. Normally, I have coffee and muffins out when people start wandering upstairs, and then I serve breakfast. But with Strawberries & Cream French Toast (an excellent recipe I got from inncuisine.com, by the way), I can't think of a complementary muffin to serve with that, and wonder if people would even want a muffin with that. What would you do? I, personally, would not want a bread with my bread. What do you serve with your french toast entrees?
I guess if I had to pair up a muffin to go with that, it would be the Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins with Raspberry Butter, but I think it's too much bread overall.
