French Toast are until today a very popular breakfast option. It is on most breakfast menu’s around South–Africa.You can do quite a bit to make it different in a way of a plating it.  At most of the establishes I have worked at, we had French toast with bacon and syrup on it, our South–Africans love our bacon! You can also choose which syrup you love most, normal syrup or maple syrup. I kind of like the latter more myself, but anyone can do. At the one establishment I worked at, we added lovely fresh Granny Smith Apple slices on top and I must say that the green colour together with the pink colour of the bacon it makes up quite a colourful plate of delicious food.  I would recommend streaky bacon to go with it as it looks prettier when plating, instead of back bacon pieces which are not visually so beautiful on this dish. Try the fruit variation of the french toast - with berries and yogurt.
