An old Sanskrit saying goes, “One must have a king size breakfast, lunch like a common man and dine like a poor in order to have a healthy life.” The Italian traditional colazione is full of royal pastries, brioches, croissants and hot coffee. Let’s take a look at some healthy breakfast options in Trieste.

Located in Piazza Attilio Hortis, 6 Mug offers vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free breakfast options. They offer soy milk for coffee, gluten and lactose-free brownies, banana breads and many more. They are also the only ones to serve the variety of teas from French Company “Kusmi”. Their specialty includes black tea, green tea, detox tea and many more blends for soothing effects.

Located in Via Luigi Cadorna, 19, this is a place for home-made food served with a smile. Muesli, scrambled eggs and real American style pancakes are especially recommended.
