So what do Asian folk typically eat for breakfast? I don't mean SUPER traditional like tea eggs and rice porridge but, well, what then? I'm really getting into Asian foods but when it comes to breakfast I'm at a bit of a loss.

Same thing they eat for lunch and dinner. Rice with something something. Sunday mornings, dim sum at the restaurants.

Depends on the country, the culture and whether the Asian in question is urban, suburban or rural.
For example, bacon and eggs is common in urban Philippines, though served with garlic-fried rice rather than with the more western toasts, biscuits, breads, muffins or scones. In rural Philippines, leftovers from the night before are typically eaten as breakfast the next day.
Country-wide in Burma, pic related is breakfast and it's delicious.

I, again I, ME, PERSONALLY do not differentiate meals based on time of day although I tend to stay away from spicy peppers around bed time so I can sleep better.

But yeah, the way I was raised (Chinese) was that whatever you eat for dinner could be breakfast, could be lunch, etc.

Sounds about right. Rice, congee, fun(rice noodles) and bao (bread made from rice flour).

The only time I have a real Chinese breakfast is the first day of Chinese New Years, but it's all vegetarian. So I can't say with authority what a typical Chinese breakfast would be served with the rice.

Asia doesn't really have foods that are traditionally only for breakfast. A lot of what they eat for breakfast wouldn't be considered breakfast food in the west. I guess if there's even anything close to being a traditionally breakfast food it would be fried rice. All over Asia it's a way to use up leftover rice from the night before and things and you see a lot of people eat the local version of fried rice with a fried egg. But sometimes it's shocking that it's quite normal to eat soup for breakfast or even a bowl of very spicy curry. Not messing around with cold bowls of cereal are they now...

It's a fish and chickpea soup with rice noodles and fried shallots. Also, pieces of savoury deep-fried dough; similar to a doughnut, but savory rather than sweet and stick or ball shaped rather than doughnut-shaped.

varies a lot. depending on the day of week. season. whether i am in hurry or have time to make something. if i have time then stir fry rice (using leftover rice) are my choice as i can put anything from leftover. and it's fast to make, probably take no more than 5 to 10 minutes.

If they want to buy at the store: some kind of bao, a sandwich, danbing(crepe/pancake), rice porridge(congee for you pretentious fags) and fried dough, or HK style cafe with an assortment of foods served with toast w/o sweet butter and a coffee/milk tea.

If they want to go to a restaurant: noodles, dim sum, and tea.

If they cook at home: fish and rice, egg and some salted meat with rice, or leftovers from last night.

HK cafes are usually all day types of food. Anything you see from a street vendor that is quick and cheap is probably a good guess for breakfast.

My grandmother (Japanese) always used to make me rice balls for breakfast, nothing fancy but still delicious.

Asian here, been eating rice with almost everything all my life, doubt Ill ever stop.
Had fried eggs with dry chili pepper powder this morning with rice. Shits breakfast of the champs.

>> No.3894235

this is the first time I've thought about that. usually it's steamed rice with whatever meat is available. "whatever you can have for lunch/dinner"/leftovers is actually pretty accurate. though I guess traditionally rice porriage and even ramen would be it.

aren't like a lot of them lactose intolerant though? Maybe some, sure, but a lot of them seems unlikely

I don't think so. That being said there aren't that many cows in china so a lot of milk is imported, which is probably why it isn't included in a traditional breakfast.
