There are very interesting “hidden treasures” in the Greek capital but you have to have a friend there.
eating out at a cafe in Athens
One evening my friends told me that we were going to the place with best wine in Athens. I expected an expensive nice looking restaurant. I was amazed when we stopped in front of a building which looked like any other building around. There was not even an inscription “restaurant”.
We entered and I saw about 15 tables, all of them full. One of the walls was decorated with barrels which, as I understood, were full of wine. There was just one waiter. When a table got free, we sat, he came and instead of table-cloth, he put a large sheet of wrapping paper on the table.
It appeared there was no menu at all. The only thing the “restaurant” offered was grilled meat and red wine. We were served fast. Then I tasted the wine. It was fantastic!
