Breakfast Delight

The breakfast at The Fountain Athens was simply fantastic! It included a wide variety of options like fresh fruits, Greek omelettes, and delicious pancakes. Every morning felt like a special treat, and I particularly enjoyed the cooked items that were prepared right in front of us. Such a great way to start the day!
