They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and Michael Zee would certainly agree. This cooking enthusiast prepares the same breakfast for himself and his partner every morning, and this culinary adventure comes with an incredible love story.
Zee’s Instagram page @symmetrybreakfast became such a huge hit that it’s followed by 762,000 people, but he only started it because he wanted to do something nice for his boyfriend Mark.
“When
I met Mark he was working at Burberry and would work insane hours (he still
does), and most days I would be on my own at home each evening. Breakfast time
was the only guaranteed time we would have together,” explains Zee on his official
website.
Preparing two similar plates every morning was his way of showing Mark how much he cares about him, and it became their little ritual over the years. He gets up early every morning to prepare something special for his significant other, and it’s usually the best part of their day since they get to share it together.
Zee’s
incredible photos require a lot of attention to detail and amazing photography
skills, but you can try making some of his breakfast foods on your own. He
published Symmetry Breakfast cookbook,
which features 100 of his best recipes.
