breakfast n brazil

Breakfast at home is a simple affair in Brazil: coffee, milk, bread and jam, sometimes cheese and ham, with fresh fruit. My favorite: papaya!  In Belém do Pará I also had mangoes and a wonderful avocado cream. In Recife, a tasty, salty grilled cheese (queijo de coalho) I had never eaten before. In Rio, it's also available in certain restaurants and at the beach, kind of a recent fad.
