Discovering the U.K. 2017 for Chanel

Daily Meals The standard practices for each meal are:

+ Breakfast: A full English breakfast includes bacon, poached eggs, grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, toast, sausages, and baked beans. The British are also fond of a continental breakfast of croissants and a cappuccino + Lunch: Served between 12.30-14.00, lunch includes a sandwich, soup, or salad + Dinner: The biggest meal of the day typically includes a meat with two vegetables and/or a potato; however, it can also be pasta or a curry Buying Groceries A supermarket is a large grocery store selling a variety of groceries, including dry goods, meat, produce, fish, frozen foods, and bakery items in addition to household supplies like cleaning products, toiletries, and cosmetics. Some supermarkets may host a pharmacy department, as well. Supermarkets are often stocked with a variety of multinational food. They are open seven days a week, with some locations even offering 24-hour service. If a store is not open 24-hours, Sunday hours are typically shorter. Some check out assistants will help with packing your groceries, based on store policy, while others won’t. The most predominant stores in the U.K. are Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Marks & Spencer’s, and Morrisons. In recent years, German supermarket chains like Aldi and Lidl have become more popular. Helpful Hint: Recent legislation in the U.K. requires that all supermarkets charge five pence for each plastic bag, encouraging patrons to use reusable cloth/carrier bags.
