Hotel Breakfast Hacks When Everything Has Eggs

Hotel breakfast is designed for a person who eats eggs, yogurt, and a muffin the size of a lighting fixture. You can still win.

The assembly

Oatmeal (confirm it is not made with milk — often it is just packets)
Banana, apple, orange
Peanut butter from your bag
Hash browns if they are not cooked on the meat grill — ask
Toast, dry, with your own spread
Coffee, black, or with the oat milk you packed

What to ask, short

"Are the potatoes cooked with animal fat?" One question. If they don't know, skip.

Steal like a professional

Take fruit for later. Take oatmeal packets. Do not take the entire basket and become a story in the group chat.
