Our room at the Peninsula Tokyo (see how much I loved it here) came with daily breakfast at the lobby.
It's very rare that I would get up for the most important meal of the day, but I looked forward to our early mornings here.
The food was boring - mediocre at best - for a hotel of such calibre. But I enjoyed sipping my coffee enveloped by the warm hues, under lights that looked like little stars, and amidst all the bowing action that is truly Japanese.
Breakfast was no buffet. You choose from the a la carte menu which was rather limited.
If you are staying for more than 5 days you would have already tried all the options.
