Φαγητό

The taste of food is distinctive to every one of us. I try to suggest places that are commonly accepted for their quality, are easy to reach ( by metro, tram or bus ) and are not very expensive. If you need very expensive restaurants then you could ask me.
It's at the centre of the city, great food ( that is always questionable though ) and great service.
