Now for the Breakfast part of the Review

For Breakfast i chose a light noodle soup, some instant coffee and condensed milk to go with the coffee, also some crackers, because i thought that cream crackers might be sweet, and that would do great with coffee in my opinion.

after some time the condensed milk flocked out, formed a beatiful and almost hypnotic pattern, but it was really nice and strong coffee

The Crackers abit smashed up, unfortunately they were very bland so i put them in the noodle soup to soak up the broth

Just tried one of the Musk flavored Lifesavers, for me as a german it was like if i licked a Urinal cake, no offense meant. (it also didnt help that it was also pink, just like one)

Nice review Eistee! Glad to see everything made it except for the crackers. Did laugh at your comment about the musk sweets though. Germany must have some really good smelling urinals :D
