The American mind cannot comprehend this
Literally. I'm just sitting here wondering if European trains have a first class section or something.
The only eggs you'll find on an American train come in the form of a used tampon left on the floor...
You can use that as a teabag!
Omg thanks for the visual!
Uhhh Amtrak has both First Class as well as Diner Cars with eggs lol. Itβs just so slow and shitty that youβve never bothered to be on it.
They do have first class. But the on board restaurant (if there is one) is accessable for all, not only 1st class travelers.
But in some trains, 1st class also includes service to your seat, while peasants need to walk to the restaurant car.
We paid a tiny bit more on a german train for dinner, fresh fish iirc and it was delicious, served by a waiter, god the railways in the uk are shit.
Do English trains have actual food anymore, even in first class? It's been years since I travelled first class.
The American mind wonders why the yolks are a deep orange instead of neon yellow.
It's just a matter of what you feed the chickens dude
Other chickens.
You're not kidding. I lived on land with ducks and chickens. Not only are the yolks a deep and rich color, they're thicker and more sticky. I miss having fresh duck eggs daily.
The European mind has never learned of carotenoids, I guess.
Y'all are never getting rid of me je voudrais manger all this merde up in here
that looks amazing for a train bistro plate
This is some gourmet shit
this is the future they took from us
Obligatory how much did it cost, for the English getting reamed.
Based on the brochure on the table, this looks like a MΓV train, so probably 3,50β¬ for the food and 1,70β¬ for the coffee (source PDF). YMMV depending on which route you take.
Good work detective. What a bargain! How about the train fares?
Budapest to Vienna starts at 13β¬. Budapest to Hamburg is around 88β¬. Discounts may apply to students and seniors.
We almost had a train here in Alberta but it got cancelled until further notice because our provincial government is a dumpster fire of stupidity.
Damn that looks tasty.
I've had it with these European eggs in this European train!
Omg this looks so good, sadly the food in German ICEs is not this colourful :(
