Morphology
This is a straightforward place-name + food noun combination: a B1 learner who knows 'New York' (the city) and 'breakfast' will infer it refers to a type or style of breakfast associated with New York. The compositional pattern (e.g. 'English breakfast', 'American breakfast') is cross-linguistically common, so the basic meaning is transparent even if specific items (bagels, lox) require cultural knowledge.
Etymology
New York breakfast may come from the city's busy delis and bakeries, where people order a large breakfast of bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon. That's why the phrase now means 'a substantial or traditional breakfast'.
