Athanasiou (San Francisco)

Este es el primer local, y desde sus inicios siempre lo frecuenté, era el lugar de culto para desayunar diferente. En esta ocasión no fue distinto, tomé un capuccino doble con un emparedado de pollo. Tanto el capuccino como el emparedado estaban buenísimos. El café lo decoran con figuras, de hecho me parece que fue el eimer lugar en Panamá en tener un barista dedicado a esto. El sandwich fue épico y me recordó los del principio, al igual que el cuadrito de chocolate que probé. Es un lugar en el que uno encuentra de todo para comer, desde chocolate hasta pie de cerezas. Lo bueno es que es la mayoría de las cosas son frescas, hechas por ellos.

Este restaurante me encanta porque puedes estar seguro que la calidad de la comida es la misma no importa la sucursal a la que asistas todas tiene excelente servicio y calidad en sus productos me encanta te lo recomiendo ampliamente

Para un foodie es el paraíso... Sobretodo al tratarse de postres. Los emparedados son también excelentes así como los panes y el helado. Hay que visitarlo.

Let me start by saying that I had high hopes for this place...and it wasn't all entirely hopeless...but I think it looks better than it actually is. I loved the 'feel' of the place...sandwiches all made and on display for you to see, the industrial warehouse look, the open bakery so that you can see what goes on. But I found when I approached everything from a more critical eye (...after all this is what a review is meant to do right?) the overall feeling I had was that the quality of products and the service provided was only really good/decent and it was the decor and (new) experience that was pushing me to think it was better. IMO, not a great idea to queue for a sandwich, queue to pay then queue again to have it toasted/cooked. However, great looking sandwiches...but not nice to fill them with crisp fresh lettuce which then goes all warm and soggy after toasting...just a personal preference. The "fresh" juices I didn't think were very good. I mean, they were pre-made in plastic cups for a start and our papaya one was solid...and my maracuya was not particularly sweet. The seating area is very small...the actual chair and table that you sit at is tiny...I'm quite a big guy (not particularly fat I hasten to add)...and it was verging on uncomfortable for me...though perfect for all the skinny housewives here I guess. Afterwards we had a good look around the sweet section...I can't say I tried any of the chocolates but everything looked pretty good. There were a lot of greek inspired and traditional deserts which is great if you want just that...but I wanted to see what else they had (could do) and it was limited. We tried a couple of croissants (ham and cheese plus a chocolate) and they were overly buttery...really overly buttery...not light and fluffy but quite sickly from all the butter and very stodgy...wasn't impressed with these. Not worth mentioning the carparking as it was very limited which is the norm everywhere here. Overall, I would think to go back sometime if I was close by to give it another chance as it is a welcome new addition to the San Fran neighbourhood.

He ido muchas veces y en ninguna ocasion las cosas dulces que ofrecen me han matado, sin embargo los emparedados y otras comidas saladas son muy ricas y hay mucha variedad para escoger
