Power Breakfast at Choices in Yas Island Rotana

I'm not an early riser. I'm usually having my morning drink when others are already taking their lunch, and I'm having lunch when they are on their afternoon coffee break! I have a very strange routine, but things change whenever I'm on vacation. It is the only time when I'm already up on my feet before 8 AM, the only time when I'm at sync with my husband's body clock! 

During our stay at Yas Island Rotana, I was already wide awake at 7. I was able to bask under the warm (not hot) sunshine at the pool area before we went to Choices for breakfast. It feels so good to wake up early, to see the sunrise and to eat my first meal of the day on a typical breakfast time! I love love love vacations!  

Choices is an all day dining restaurant at Yas Island Rotana. In the morning, there's a widespread selection of breakfast goodies served at a very relaxing ambiance. It wasn't as grand as the one that we had at The Cove, but we had all the essentials we needed to survive the extreme adventure that was waiting for us at Yas Waterworld! The breakfast choices were fresh fruits and greens, omelettes and pancakes from the live cooking station, high in protein breakfast basics, and carbo-loaded rice, bread and pastries.

Choices offered a classic power breakfast! Every section was kept simple; no fussy food presentations and fancy extras, but there were different varieties to choose from. No wonder why Choices was named as such! Well, if only I wasn't off to a water park on the next hour, I could have more than four plates of breakfast goodies! You know, a super heavy meal doesn't really go along with swimwear!

With the power breakfast at Choices, I survived an intense battle with the summer heat and the thrilling water park slides at Yas Waterworld, and the happiest part is: my tummy was kept swimwear-worthy!  :)
