Question
When I pray on the bus and pause after Yishtabach to pray the Shema and Amidah at the seminary, am I allowed to speak and eat?
Answer
Shalom Rav
It is forbidden to interrupt even with speech between Yishtabach and the blessings of the Amidah. [Some permit speaking for the sake of a mitzvah or communal needs]
And certainly, one should not interrupt for eating.
