One thing we’ve really had to adjust to here is the “french breakfast”.  This was especially tough when we first arrived and were tired and hungry and had to eat breakfast in our temporary hotel.

Breakfast isn’t a big thing here, in fact, it’s nothing like in the U.S.  A typical breakfast here is a croissant, café (espresso) and a glass of orange juice.  A hotel breakfast may also include some cheeses, baguettes, cereal and yogurt.  Nicer hotels may have a “hot” breakfast.  Malted breakfast drinks also seem popular.

There are no breakfast restaurants here and the cafes will be open selling drinks but no food.
