Breakfast bliss


Is breakfast the most important meal of the day? If we approach it right it certainly can be. A nutritious breakfast replenishes blood sugar levels to help your mind and body function better and can prevent overeating later in the day. The Island has plenty of places to enjoy a wide variety of healthy or hearty breakfasts, grab brekkie to go, or find the ingredients to prepare a tasty spread at home. Make time for a healthy breakfast in 2019, and fuel up for the day ahead with some inspiration from Style of Wight.

Caf fé Isola, Newport Porridge in various forms has been eaten around the world for centuries and helps to sustain energy. On chi l ly winter mornings there’s nothing better to start your day. Caffe Isola in Newport’s del icious porridge is made with Briddlesford Farm mi lk, but can also be ordered with oat, almond or soya mi lk. On the menu every day is a traditional banana, cinnamon and sultana option or tasty fresh berries with seeds and honey. Porridge of the Week specials tempt with more seasonal flavours like spiced plum compote, baked apple and cinnamon with Briddlesford Farm cream, or fresh fig pistachio and honey.
