It was my pleasure! I wanted to try that breakfast for two you had the previous year.

It was fun, but this year I have an early morning flight to Paris. So sad.

I preferred the simpler restaurant, Terminal 90, although the Movenpick has a very extensive buffet. Both have beer and wine.

People who skipped the brunch were probably lured by hotel buffets. Le Meridien has a rather elegant breakfast free to Plats which makes it a difficult choice.

Awk! Is it possible to have too many Nürnberger sausages?
