What’s For Breakfast In Different Countries And Cultures

What’s for breakfast mom. What’s for breakfast darling. What’s for breakfast nan. What’s for breakfast at the cafe. What’s for breakfast I’m hungry. What’s for breakfast. Is there any breakfast. Ever wondered what to have for breakfast. Some of these may be healthy breakfast food, and some may not, but here is what people are having for breakfast in different countries and cultures across the world. Let find out What’s For Breakfast In Different Countries And Cultures.

What’s For Breakfast In Different Countries And Cultures 

O Que É Para O Pequeno Almoço, Portugal

There are few breakfasts as simple, and even fewer as delicious, as Portugal’s favourite: a bica, espresso and a pastel de nata. A staple throughout the country, you’ll find pasteis de nata in every cafe in Portugal.’ The two go perfectly together as well: the rich, bitter and slightly chocolately flavour of the coffee contrasts against the sweetness of the egg custard. While having cake for breakfast can often leave you feely stuffed and sickly, this is just the perfect amount of sweet. Be sure to try it when you visit Portugal.

早餐吃什麼 , In Hong Kong, dim sum is the traditional Cantonese breakfast

In Hong Kong dim sum is your traditional breakfast fare. You can have all sorts of different dishes but they all come served in small bamboo baskets. There are so many different kinds you can have but some of the most popular are steamed dumplings. They can be savory or sweet. In this photo the yellow ones are filled with custard, the piggies are filled with BBQ pork and the pink ones have spicy vegetables in them. We love the variety you can have at breakfast. Dim sum is almost always eaten with friends and family, the more the merrier. Eating yummy dumplings with people you love is our favourite way to do breakfast.

The English Breakfast, United Kingdom

You can say what you like about British food, but there’s only one type of breakfast you’ll ever need in England and that’s a classic Full English. The ultimate big feast, you’ll find all sorts of fried goodness on your plate, so make sure you’re super hungry before you begin. Usually a Full English, or a fry up as it’s also known, is served mid morning, because not many people can stomach so much food at 8am.
No Full English breakfast is complete without bacon, sausages, a side of toast or fried bread sometimes both, baked beans, mushrooms, hash browns, fried eggs, grilled tomatoes and if you’re brave, black pudding. Yes, that’s all one meal! Almost every pub, café, restaurant or hotel will serve their own version of the fry up, but the best ones are made at home so you can pick and choose exactly what you want on your plate. Don’t forget to brew a pot of English Breakfast tea to wash everything down with.

What’s For Petit Dejeuner, Southern France

In the South of France, where I live, you may think breakfast consists of mimosas and caviar, but that is far from the truth. A typical breakfast in these parts is more along the lines of a big bowl of Café au Lait espresso poured into a substantial amount of warmed milk and little sweet cakes called Madeleines or some variation of those traditional French, buttery, sponge cake like treats. You recognize Madeleines by their shell shaped base because of the mold used to bake them. There are traditional cakes and those with chocolate bits in them. Let these boats float in your café to soak up a bit of the coffee and then munch them down.

Was Gibts Z’morge, Swiss German Switzerland

In most parts of Switzerland, Zopf is the traditional bread to eat for breakfast, especially for brunch on a Sunday morning. Zopf literally translates into English to mean braid. It’s made using butter and milk which makes it softer than most other bread. The dough is then braided into a plait before it goes into the oven. Zopf goes best with butter and homemade jam, honey or a variety of Swiss cheese.

Ce Avem La Micul Dejun, Romanian, Romania

I will not lie to you we, Romanian, love to eat. And cannot brag about being vegetarians as meat is an essential part of our meals. Even for breakfast. Most people will have cheese when they wake up. Either cow, goat or sheep cheese. They will combine it with tomatoes and inevitably add some sausages or some slănină which is pig fat. And yes, you will get some bread slices of bread as well. It’s definitely not a light breakfast, but it will keep your belly full. I love to have it when we go trekking in the mountains.
