Eating the morning meal.
خلفية ثقافية
Breakfast is often a hot meal. Porridge (kasha) is the king of the Russian breakfast table, believed to be essential for children's growth. In cities like Moscow, 'breakfast meetings' are a common way to start the business day, often held in trendy cafes. The 'Stolova' (canteen) culture established a standard breakfast of bread, butter, cheese, and a boiled egg or sausage. Hospitality often begins with breakfast. A guest should never leave the house without being offered at least tea and a snack.
