Hotel breakfast buffet in India — what's your one-plate strategy?
You land at a hotel for work or a weekend and face a big Indian breakfast buffet — idli, parathas, eggs, chole, fruit, sweets, chai. What do you actually put on your plate so you feel satisfied, can get through the morning, and don’t overeat? Share one plate combination, a small rule you follow (eg. protein first), or one thing you always avoid.

Evidence-informed context for this discussion
Practical rule: protein first + fibre + a small starchy portion. Example one-plate: 2 eggs (or 100 g curd/paneer/sprouts), 1 idli or a small whole‑wheat paratha (or a small bowl of chole), a generous serving of sambar/vegetables or salad, and one piece of fresh fruit. Skip or keep sweets/fried items tiny; choose unsweetened chai or cut sugar. Visual guide: half the plate veg, one quarter protein, one quarter carbs — this boosts satiety and steadier energy.
