Enjoy the flavors of Biltmore\u00ae at your breakfast table<\/h2>\n

During George and Edith Vanderbilt\u2019s time at Biltmore, breakfast was an opportunity to come together to break the night\u2019s fast with a nourishing meal before embarking onto the busyness of the day. Their home, America\u2019s Largest Home\u00ae, in Asheville, North Carolina was built in 1895 in French Renaissance-style and set a standard for gracious hospitality<\/a> that\u2019s legendary to this day. Guests and family came to stay and play, enjoy the extensive grounds, the indoor pool, a well-stocked library, elegant rooms, and a welcome as inviting as the house itself.<\/p>\n

\"EnjoyThe Breakfast Room, one of our favorite rooms in Biltmore House<\/a>, is wrapped in embossed leather and features a grand fireplace at its heart. George enjoyed traditional fare for breakfast \u2013 omelets, shirred (baked) eggs, fried ham, bacon and potatoes, often accompanied a caf\u00e9 au lait. Perhaps the most casual meal of the day, guests helped themselves to a generous buffet laid out on the sideboard. Offerings likely included an assortment of meats, eggs prepared several ways, baked goods such as biscuits or scones, fish or other seafood, seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables from the estate farms. Coffee, cocoa and, of course tea, would have also been served.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to imagine anyone not wanting to begin their day in the Breakfast Room but some guests opted to break their fast in the privacy of their room. Given the beautifully appointed guest rooms<\/a>, we can understand the difficulty of that choice. Each of the 35 bedrooms were artfully decorated with lavish drapery, ornate finishes, fine china, luxurious linens and well-appointed furnishings, which made them comfortable spots for sleeping and casual dining as well.<\/p>\n

While most of us don\u2019t live in elegant mansions like Biltmore, we can borrow breakfast inspiration from the Vanderbilt way of living<\/a>. On days when you\u2019re not rushing out the door, take time to set your breakfast table with fine china, an eye-catching tablecloth and fresh flowers. Then enjoy one of these breakfast recipes, generously shared by Biltmore chefs.<\/p>\n
