To Theio Tragi Athens

A very interesting approach

""To Thio Tragi" in Athens is a restaurant you just need to visit. The prices are fair for such creative cuisine, and you should try the degustation menu!"

I want to use this first paragraph to be very clear about my intention to talk about To Theio Tragi (The Holy Goat) in Athens: I want you to go there. You have to go there. You want to go there but you still don't know it :-).

This is such an amazing place, located in such a cool area I don't even know how to start talking about it, so allow me to be vehement and mention the atmosphere first. The restaurant is always full, so you'd better call some days in advance and make a reservation. About the decoration and the music I can just mention that it's amazing: they serve you food –let´s talk about it later– while you are listening to punk rock. PUNK ROCK! (the volume is not high, but perfect to continue having a nice conversation).

And the food, ah, the food! I bet you won't be able to leave nothing in the plate. The presentation, taste and amount of the food are just perfect for a creative cuisine restaurant. The menu changes every season, and I would highly recommend you have a look at the degustation menu they have for two people. The prices are above average but they are more than fair for such a restaurant, no doubt about it.

You also have the option to go to the bar just for some drinks.

Stoa tou Vivliou

Culture in the heart of Athens

At "Stoa tou Vivliou" in Athens you can find and visit many publishing houses - it's the 'book arcade'. I like it because it's intellectual & alternative.

Krikos

The combination of almost everything

"Krikos" Athens was my go-to when I use to live in the neighbourhood, given their cosy atmosphere and delicious coffee. Nice place to go on a sunny day...

Ormos Afroditis

My dearest fish restaurant

"Ormos Afroditis" in Piraeus, Athens, is great if you like shrimp & seafood. I really love the '80s decoration, the raki is good and the beer is cold!
