On this food tour, we will take you to see a typical Sunday in Greece, traditionally a day of leisure, where most Greeks enjoy a large meal with extended family, shop at a flea market and visit classic tavernas of “old Athens.”
As our Sunday stroll continues through the cobblestoned streets of the Plaka, the historic neighborhood under the shadow of the Acropolis, we’ll walk past buildings and monuments representing the depth of Athenian history, from the ancient Agora and the Stoa of Attalos, a 2nd century B.C. shopping arcade, to one of Athens’ oldest functioning churches, where students still go to get a blessing before final exams.
Here we will find somethings seasonal and delicious
