A tasting menu

We thought our experiences of breakfasts in hostals in Chile was worth sharing. Spurred on by this mornings version.
The only way to describe a Chilean breakfast is like a tasting menu, lots of very tiny portions of things served in really random containers. Take today for instance: there was cereal ( some strange star shaped concoction) , about eight pieces served in a wine glass (in other places we've had it served in thimbles, cups and things, always only ever about 10 flakes, today was a new high). Followed by some scrambled egg (must be less than an egg each) served on a dolly size plate (about an inch and a half in diameter), followed by some Chilean flat bread roll with jam(ish), and finally, because we're in the area that had German settlers, a tiny slither of cream cake!!
Curious....
