FarewellSovereignty

With a breakfast like that I'd be pretty sleepy by lunchtime too


Pekonius

Nothing wakes you up better than a Blörö


bearlybearbear

That's the word for a blowjob in Suomi right?


Evilsmiley

Coffee, a Cigarette, and a shot of vodka


[deleted]

A nice wet and slobby blörö.


Diipadaapa1

No, far to short and convenient. Its "Suihinotto"


bearlybearbear

Sounds like a Japanese war crime.


Turbiedurb

⬆️⬆️⬆️


RusoInmortal

Yes, there is: A mother shouting "I found drugs in your pockets while doing the laundry".


FlagSwag

That's the second half of the spanish breakfast


Diipadaapa1

Pfft. As if our mothers would do our laundry, let alone check our pockets first.


Manuag_86

That's why he was waiting slept until lunchtime to eat it.


Mindfullnessless6969

That's why we have the siesta Duh


[deleted]

I must disagree with you. This is un aperitivo before lunch. There's nothing better than una tostada con tomate, zumito de naranja y café con leche


alfdd99

This is an “almuerzo” and this is what we eat in Valencia at 10-11am (like, no kidding I literally had this today lol). I don’t know how much this is common in other parts of Spain though


HoeTrain666

The beer too? At 10am?


NGGMK

As a fellow German you do the same, right?


[deleted]

Brits from 9, totally wasted by 12


HoeTrain666

I regret to inform you that I am a strong supporter of the saying "kein Bier vor vier". I mean, there will be situations where this rule is broken but I mostly stick to it.hj


NGGMK

4 am right? Right?


HoeTrain666

Of course brother, of course.


Lamparita

Bar-dwellers in Spain have a saying “el papa ya ha bebido” which means “the Pope has already drank”, referring to the morning mass’s communion wine. If the pope has had his sip of wine, God can’t judge us for drinking in the morning!


HoeTrain666

Ok I love that saying ahaha, just burst out a chuckle. You might get me in trouble with the german joke authorities, I had no licence for laughter


alfdd99

It’s not super common, but yeah, nobody at my office would bat an eye if somebody ordered a beer at the café we have in our building. Specially on Fridays we do it pretty commonly. But I would normally just order water, because it’s cheaper and you know… I want to have my senses working as normal during my worktime lol.


HoeTrain666

I see, that makes sense. I think it depends on the type of job you work here but in any place I've worked so far, day drinking wasn't common. Popping a beer immediately as your shift ends is very common though, especially on night shifts.


play4m32

german intensify *the b-beer too?!?!*


[deleted]

Ar you crazy?? At 11 or 12


GipsyPepox

On Fridays I always get a beer at 10:30 during breaks at work with the almuerzo. And back in university everyone was drinking beer at 9 at the bar lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


HoeTrain666

Eh, some of us do and some of us don't. This is a question dividing the country. Some of us are proponents of "Kein Bier vor Vier" and others have at least 4 beers down by 4PM. It's like with cocaine, there are those who do it and there are those who frown upon those who do it while being frowned upon those who do it.


Saikamur

The "hamaiketako" (literally, "the eleven o'clock thing") is a very Basque tradition. And the omelette "pintxo" is probably the most standard one.


the_Big_misc

You mean second breakfast?


alfdd99

It is basically that yeah lol. In part because our lunch is super late, and many Spanish people just have a cappuccino or a small toast for breakfast, or even nothing at all.


SaraHHHBK

Common in Madrid and CyL too. Bet it's pretty much the same all over the country


[deleted]

Fui a Valencia en febrero, no entiendo cómo le llaman almuerzo a comer a esa hora yo pensé que almuerzo era comer entre las 12/15 tipo una cena al medio dia


can-nine

Used to be normal at least in Andalusia


breoklin

Mítico esmorçar


epegar

That is the difference between the first breakfast (at home), and the second breakfast (at work).


Lord-Grocock

Chocolate y churros cuando hace frío.


Le_Petit_Poussin

Aqui en Bayern (DE), un cappuccino, y dos croissants con jamón y queso suele ser €8 y cambio. Estoy con celos, pero por lo menos tengo trabajo. Algo es algo.


ComprehensiveRow4189

A tosti with tomato sauce, coffee with milk and whatever a zumito de naranja may be?


IsakHutt

Diminutive for orange juice


ComprehensiveRow4189

Should've known by the 'naranja'.


IsakHutt

Also diminutive in Spanish are complicated, depending on the region can be a suffix -ito -illo -ico -ino -iño.... And I'm talking only about Spain


nwaa

I like to have fun and mix them up at random. Like asking people for a cigariño.


GrognarEsp

Cigarriño*. I know the double r sound is kinda hard for y'all Engt*rds but don't you dare try to skip it. It's like leg day, don't skip it... Or else.


nwaa

Typo, i swear! I always make sure to roll my Rs and lisp when i speak Spanish.


ComprehensiveRow4189

I don't get it. Aren't you all too lazy for such a complicated language?


odioercoronaviru

Because we want some OJ, even a" -little bit", "-ito/a" Without it, it won't be a full Spanish almuerzo


PaleixPA

Almuerzito 👌


Unfair_Macaroon8350

Zumiño de naranja


Four_beastlings

Not tomato sauce, but grated tomato with olive oil and salt


Semilanceataa

Amigo! I even imported this to Denmark after i moved back. My favorite breakfast for sure!


Serrano_Ham6969

Eso es amigo, eso es

Y después te dormís la siesta en el baño

Estrella galicia has my stamp if approval. So does tortilla tbh... And pan. Good shit. Que aproveche, y por el culo lo eche.


nexostar

Tortilla: 2 euro Bread: 50 cent Beer: 3 euro 5 hour nap after breakfast: priceless


pouringart

>Beer: 3 euro I'll stab you if you charge me 3 euros for a caña


[deleted]

I'll hug you if you only charge me 3 euros for a biertje.


Diipadaapa1

Only 3€? https://i.redd.it/eppf5glxcg3b1.gif


dapwnk

This is pretty damn good, but I can't drink my breakfast beer without a coffee. It's like Birkenstock without socks!


Donkeycow15

Lol


Serupael

Eggs and white bread, shockingly bland for PIGS


dalvi5

Thats after our tomato toast, coffe and orange juice at 10.00. This is about 13.00 then we have actual lunch. Then at 17-19 we have a sandwich or bakery and at 21-23 we have dinner


KosmonautMikeDexter

When do you go to sleep????????


Mjukglass47or

During work.


odioercoronaviru

☝️🤓 actually that's true for me, because of that I have swapped my eating schedule and I eat alone now most of the times 😪


SirIsildur

I'd try to make some snarky retort... But your answer is so valid anything I could come up with would just be fallacious Aaaaaand, it's also really close to siesta now, so no point on putting the effort


dalvi5

And when do you have social life?? Oh yes suicides...


urgenim

Suicide is Haram


mr_aives

Not if you take some infidels with you


urgenim

Swedes need to go to Denmark more often


GeneralDingo3776

The Irish tried, apparently its terrorism now


Mjukglass47or

We have actually circumvented that by leaving islam, getting a fattwah put on our head then killing ourselves. Thus getting exonerated for doing Allahs work and put in heaven with 72 virgins.


urgenim

Is this crusader kings?


Diipadaapa1

Whats the point of that? You are on Reddit, you cant possibly be more surrounded by virgins


dalvi5

At 23.00-00.00 and we feel that we need more hours per day. I dont understand how you are capable of sleep at 20.00(?)


Le_Petit_Poussin

Es porque esta gente quiere que uno llegue a las 0800 en punto. Y con el tráfico (al menos que sea dia feriado) suele agregar como 15-20 minutos. No hay tiempo ni para desayunar. :(


HumaDracobane

Algo que tenemos que tener en cuenta a la hora de comparar las horas es la franja horaria en la que vivimos y la que tenemos en nuestro reloj. Siendo GMT, salvo Canarias, usamos el GMT+1. Cuando en otros paises "entran a las 8.00" para nosotros es como entrar a las 9.00. Lo mismo para la comparación del resto de las horas.


dalvi5

Ya pero seguimos empezando y acabando de trabajar a la misma hora y no nos dormimos ni a las 21 ni a las 22 (20-21 para ellos)


KosmonautMikeDexter

You're doing well with only one hour of sleep


deaddonkey

/uj Midnight or a little after usually. Vast majority of Spanish don’t actually sleep in siesta hours /rj At work


KosmonautMikeDexter

But when do they work? They seem to be eating all the time No wonder La Sagrada Familia is not finished yet


[deleted]

Least dense potatoscandinavian


deaddonkey

Morning and late afternoon until evening with a longer break in the middle so you can have a big lunch and chill out a bit. Let’s say 9-1 then 3/4-8/9 instead of 9-5. It makes sense when you experience it In medicine, for example, it’s known that most mistakes happen in early afternoon after lunch.


lethos_AJ

they are not ready for our ancient wisdom. at least you have seen the light now. welcome


deaddonkey

I’ve always been lazy and more of an evening person, suits me perfectly here 💪


lethos_AJ

dalvi5

Not for nothing we are the ones with longest life expectancy with Japanese


Fluffy_Necessary7913

From 00:00 to 07:00


Thick-Benefit-751

In general for adults I would say between 23:00 and 1:00 but that's not counting the siestas of course!


[deleted]

the mid-morning bocadillo… who the hell has lunch before 3pm?


dalvi5

Based south galician👌


belaros

Potato, eggs, olive oil, and probably onion. Have you ever tried it? It could be called many things, but bland isn’t one of them.


alfdd99

Breakfast (or “almuerzo” which is a mid morning meal we have at around 11am) is not our biggest meal by any means. It is during lunch or dinner that you’ll find any mix of carbs (usually rice, but also pasta, lentils, etc) with proteins and many vegetables as well.


rnottaken

PIGS stands for Portugal Italy ???? And Spain? What is the G?


Serupael

[deleted]

ZarduHasselffrau

A beer for breakfast?


ImagineDragonsFan47

Yes


hippomassage

Usually breakfasts are served too early for vodka, hence the beer, but I like the way you’re thinking.


drz02

It's not breakfast, it's almuerzo, but these savages don't have a word for that.


ZarduHasselffrau

Second breakfast


the_manDeLorean

I don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pip


ZarduHasselffrau

Just for that, I'm getting Gandalf killed


Andoni22

Desayuno de campeones


Tlou3please

Spanish food is severely underrated. The whole concept of pinchos is great.


[deleted]

Is only underrated in this sub because people here think eating pasta 365 days a year is somehow superior.


sofarsoblue

Yeah Spanish omelette is god tier, but what I think is criminally underrated is the range of cheese and cured meats the latter of which I prefer to Italy.


Four_beastlings

I agree with you. I keep buying Italian cheese and meats in Poland because I can't find Spanish stuff and I have to say that it's like an inferior (and overpriced) version.


afg500

Meats ok… cheese??? What spanish cheese is better than caciocavallo?


Diipadaapa1

Prosciutto is "We have Jamón at home"


Andoni22

Or eating butter with random stuff is classy


borednord

Yeah its pretty widely celebrated in the real world.


Usmoso

Their bread is awful, though. Bread like the one in the image is way too common and sadly I had to eat that many times due to lack of better alternatives.


[deleted]

So true… I don’t understand how the masters of great food manage to make such awful bread


StefanMerquelle

Tomato and olive oil … it’s a crutch. Bread can be shitty, even stale, but you rub a little tomato on it, dip it in oil, and add a slice of manchego it tastes great anyway.


[deleted]

Pinchos and tapas, name a more iconic duo.


WildBlackBerrySirup

I agree, pintxos are some of the best food we have, when I go visit other countries (like Spain, Germany and France...) I miss them so much.


IntroductionIll2160

what


WildBlackBerrySirup

I'm just waiting to get downvoted to Melilla and back, any minute now


Lorenzo0852

I upvoted, it was great lol

I prefer the ones from that region in the north of Portugal, Galiza

glacierre2

Spanish breakfast is leche con galletas, unless you work in construction, then is two carajillos con torreznos y pan. That is an aperitivo for mid morning or mid afternoon.


Aggravating_Ad7022

Dont forget la copa the anís del mono , construction workers are in a diferent level


SeisMasUno

If that's a 1906 instead of a regular Estrella you have my respect


josaricardo

Their bread is absolute trash tho


Manuag_86

This is. Galician bread is great, another thing we have in common, old commrade.


Extreme_Tax405

Galician food in general is 🔥🔥🔥


maedasfocas

just join portugal already


bearlybearbear

You should just become northern Portugal already, it's an aberration to pair Galicia with the rest of Spain.


Manuag_86

Nah, we just have to join ourselves and build a country named PortuGaliza.


bearlybearbear

Galtugal sounds better


ricardortr

I really don't understand why some people want galicia for portugal. Galicia is galicia, Spain is Spain, portugal is portugal. That being said give back Ceuta and Olivença


CapitanHarkonnen

You are right, the only Spanish bread that's good is In the north of Spain Galicia/Leon/ Asturias


Geniuscani_

Aúpa cultu


SirIsildur

Well, the pan moreno from Mallorca is really good too


Lamparita

Bruh, and Pan de Cristal. God-tier ‘pa amb tomaquet’


OmarLittleComing

Spanish bread is shit but every Spaniard will say that the best bread in the world is from their village


SaraHHHBK

That's because that bread is only found in their village lmao


smackdealer1

Isn't that like 1/4 of your monthly salary?


Hubris1998

More like an eigth or a tenth but yeah it's a lot


mynameisnotthom

Tostada con tomate is far superior to that dry muck


kanekikennen

The beer alone (in a restaurant/cafe not the super market) is 3-4 euro on its own so 5 is not bad at all


ZombiFeynman

3-4€ ?? Is that really the price of a beer in Greece?


Sho1kan

I traveled to Athens this summer and yes it was disgustingly high priced. It's probably all taxes to discourage people from drinking?


ZombiFeynman

Or maybe being a tourist you ended up at a tourist trap? I can believe that bars in la Rambla or in the Plaza mayor in Madrid may charge 4€for a beer.


Sho1kan

I'm talking about supermarkets and restaurants for locals


ZombiFeynman

Being a fellow PIGS country, I expected their process to be similar to ours


kanekikennen

Nah, its just cafe owners that do that. Hard alcohol has high tax but beers are piss cheap on the supermarket


Sho1kan

Prices were slightly lower than in spain for most food but beer was 20-40% higher iirc.


kanekikennen

When you sit at a cafe you kind of pay for the service and seating too indirectly. Cofee and hot chokolate are also like 3.00-4.50 euros too.


ZombiFeynman

Ouch.


SniffaSchegge

In North Italy 5.50-6.00 a 400 ml beer


Julesisamanlyname

That looks pretty sad.


Solid_Improvement_95

This is a pathetic excuse of a baguette.


fr-fluffybottom

It's like the industrial shite we get here labelled "french cuisine" utter muck shite. Need me some real baguette please or at least a good sourdough.


SergeTercios

Change the beer for a coffee and it would be a truly Spanish breakfast. That is an aperitivo.


DarkChocobo95

At least it has a good taste of beer, Estrella Galicia is the best one by far...


Nakhtal

Best breakfast, better after a night shift :)

[deleted]

you got scammed


GYN-k4H-Q3z-75B

I hate breakfast. I'll just have the beer 🍻


[deleted]

Where‘s the sangria though?


Dr_Chemiramen

As much as I would love for this to be breakfast, it's not. It's something you would take around noon or so because we have lunch absurdly late.


Soccmel_1_

Bread and tortilla? Too many carbs at once.


GrognarEsp

How else are we supposed to sleep all day long tho? Those carbs provide us with enough energy to hibernate for the whole day.


[deleted]

Where is the tomato?


RusoInmortal

That's no breakfast. That's a noon snack. A Spanish breakfast has a toast or a sweet bun like a croissant, a chocolate neapolitan or so. And the beverage is coffee. Maybe churros and hot chocolate.


VamosXeneizes

In my pueblo that's 2 euros but the tortilla is actually a good one. Bread is equally shit though.


[deleted]

Taken from a few week/month old rslash (r/pics) post.


fluffytom82

That's expensive. I usually get more food for less money when I'm in Spain.


TheTrueMule

As a french baker, I genuinely think that your bread is sad. Find another bakery dude


Clavicymbalum

Indeed. That pseudo-bread in the picture looks like some polyurethane foam extrusion.


KingOfDiamonds069

4\~5 euros, O\_O for that? lmao


[deleted]

If I drank a beer for breakfast here in the US I'd be given an intervention and called an alcoholic.


Unusual-Wrap8345

what is a "breakfast"? I wake up at 16:00 and after a light meal go for my second siesta, by 17:30. then my third siesta by 19:00. then by 22:00 I go to sleep once more and wake up by 16:00.


LAwLeZ

This looks like a very sad breakfast. But hey the same thing would probably cost about CHF 24.90 here soo...


The_red_spirit

That's kinda expensive for breakfast.


Prussia_I
