Cultural Note
Spanish breakfast is traditionally simple — a café con leche with toast (tostada) and tomato spread or olive oil. Many Spaniards skip breakfast at home entirely and grab a coffee and pastry at a local café bar on their way to work. Bringing your partner desayuno en la cama (breakfast in bed) is considered a very romantic gesture.
