Athens Cuisine | Mavimore

Athens is the perfect city to discover Greek cuisine. The city is known for its delicious Greek food, with hundreds of restaurants serving all types of cuisine from around the world. You will excitedly discover the local foods and eating habits of the Athenians. The most basic step in getting to know Athens cuisine is the famous Greek breakfasts. Before you start your breakfast, make sure you have delicious Greek honey, spinach pastry, cheese pie and traditional jams on your table. You may not find Greek breakfast in some hotels that serve breakfast. You can have your breakfast at the Acropolis Museum, which is open until noon every day. If you want to taste the famous Greek yoghurt with honey and walnuts, you can go to Stani near Omonia Square. For those who do not want to spend much time for breakfast, the best choice would be to buy koulouri from street vendors in Syntagma Square and Panepistimiou Street. Koulouri, a type of bagel, and pies are the most common Greek street foods. Lunch is generally the most important meal in Greece. You should definitely try lathera and mageirefta, which are among the most characteristic dishes in the country. These dishes, traditionally consumed especially at lunch, are mostly made by cooking tomatoes and vegetables with herbs in olive oil. They are incredibly delicious, especially when combined with white cheese. Other delicious Athenian dishes you can choose for lunch are gemista, which is made by stuffing tomatoes and peppers with rice, and mosxari kokkinisto, which is made by cooking chicken or beef in tomato sauce. You can try the most delicious lunches at the restaurant called Fillipou, located in the Kolonaki area. One of the best recipes for a pleasant dinner in Athens may be to order Greek raki and ouzo with a few delicious appetizers. You can also go to a cute tavern where beautiful Greek music plays and try tsipouro, which is a slightly different raki than ouzo, or delicious Greek wines. You can choose Cafe Avissinia, which has dozens of wonderful appetizers, as well as appetizers such as marinated fish, sausage, bean stew and spicy paste. The best feature of this place, where live music is held on weekends, is that it has a magnificent view of the Acropolis. You should definitely try Greek coffees while you are in Athens. If you want to take a coffee break for a few hours, one of the best places is Kolonaki. You can sit at any cafe around Kolonaki Square and sip your coffee. You can choose the cafes on Milioni Street near the square. Mavimore Turizm is a travel agency registered with TÜRSAB. Document number: A-8307
