Francis - Unfortunately I don't have any more details of the breakfast. This is a short separate bit of text in a very wide-ranging document. I think the answers already received below clear up the meaning pretty well though.
Francis Lee (X) Dec 5, 2004:
This is a breakfast menu, right? If so, is it buffet-style?

\"power breakfast\", i.e. NOT gut-busting but certainly enough to ensure guests are \"gestärkt\" for the day\'s activities
