Preparing the first meal of the day.
Contexto cultural
Breakfast in Greece is often light during the week (coffee and a rusk) but becomes a major social event on weekends with 'pites' (pies) and eggs. In Crete, breakfast might include 'dakos' (rusks with tomato and mizithra cheese), which is a very healthy and traditional start. In cities like Athens, 'brunch' has become extremely popular, blending traditional Greek ingredients with international styles. Offering to make breakfast for a guest is a sign of respect and care in Greek culture.
