Greek traditional pencake with cottage cheese

Early morning breakfast before we hit the road to "Agios Nikolas"! You can see some people are still in their last-night costume (MardiGrass). Grabbing their breakies....It's quite Funny how it reminded me of my student-life in Singapore.

Mardi Gras; which is French for "Fat Tuesday", ends at midnight on the last day of the carnival season. This is 40 days before Easter, which is, the first Sunday after the first full moon, after the beginning of spring. Therefore, it changes every year. Carnival is from the Latin carnivale, loosely translated as "Farewell to flesh." It dates back to ancient Egypt and later spread to Greece, Rome, France, and England.
