Whenever I’m back in Kefalos, the first thing my grandmother asks me when I wake up is, “Do you want eggs?” A warm “Good morning” always comes after. In New York, I mimicked this practice. “Coffee?” always came before “How are you?” My grandmother’s breakfast always consists of bacon and eggs from the village, and Spanakopita and Tyropita from our local bakery. The avocados and pour over with oat milk are things I bring to the table.
