desayuno

First daily meal

Desayuno is Spanish for breakfast—the first meal of the day, typically eaten in the morning.

The word appears untranslated in English contexts involving Latin American or Spanish cuisine and culture: The hotel desayuno included fresh fruit and pan dulce.

In Spanish-speaking countries, desayuno ranges from light (coffee and bread) to substantial depending on region.
