Breakfast




Spaniards are typically not known for the breakfasts. Going out for breakfast in Spain you do not get the same typical fair you would expect to get back home, eggs, bacon, potatoes, etc. Spanish breakfast in more simple, usually some kind of carbohydrate and a café con leche.

While I do hold a special place for American breakfast in my heart (probably thanks to my dad who made me wonderful hot breakfast before school every day) I also love going out for Spanish breakfast, especially on Sunday. Something about getting up early, going to have a coffee and toast with tomatoes and olive oil and catching up with a friend that is just a great way to start the day. I also love to people watch. (These are some pictures from Tina’s latest trip to Madrid, and our breakfast in my favorite neighborhood, La Latina).
