The breakfast table. I think this is heavily slanted towards a Tajik interpretation of a Continental breakfast. From the left, clockwise: two types of apples, I haven't tried one yet but I suspect the green ones are imported and the yellow ones are local; a plate of apfel strudel (yesterday this was replaced by local pastries, very nice); cherries and strawberries; pat of butter; assorted jams (all very runny), honey, nutella; a jug of UHT milk, a jar of cereal, a bottle of still and a bottle of fizzy water, another jar of cereal and a jug of orange juice all in a line; pots of yoghurt; sliced cheese.
Not in the photo, but on the table was dark brown bread, sliced, and flat round white bread (see my supper pic!). Also served, cooked to order by Very Smiley Woman, fried eggs sunny side up, or an omelette, and toasted imported dull bread, coffee or tea.
