Don’t miss this place while you are in Athens. A cosy cafe and restaurant in an old athenean house. The philosophy here is plain simple : small dishes (called mezes) of greek specialties, beers from small producers and of course raki from Crete. Try their fava beans for sure +their handmade sausage. Just 2 minutes from our apartment!
