GREEK FOOD tour in ATHENS | SECRET MEZE restaurant | Greek street food in ATHENS, GREECE | Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena

We're in Athens, Greece! In this 4 part series we're exploring Greece's capital city to hunt down the best local Greek food. In this video we hunt down some Greek street food, sample popular local dishes and share a secret mezze restaurant with you, our favourite in Athens.

We start off with a breakfast pastry called bougatsa made of phyllo and semolina custard, washed down with the local drink of Freddo Espresso- espresso blended in a milkshake maker and served over ice. We then taste a kourou tiropita, a Greek feta pie from a local bakery which locals say do amazing pies. We then visit a family run peinirli shop and eat two mouthwatering peinirli- a boat shaped dough baked with a cheesy, buttery filling. We can totally see why these are so popular!

We end with a full mezze spread at Avli- a local taverna hidden behind a narrow door- it's a blink and you'll miss it kind of a place! From grilled loukaniko (sausage) to keftedakia (meatballs) we share some Greek mezze plates with you. We hope you enjoyed this Greek food video from Athens! #greekstreetfood #athensstreetfood #streetfood

We’re Thomas and Sheena, food and travel fiends. We travel full time, hunting for the BEST local food in the world to showcase via our YouTube videos. Food is a window into a country's culture and one of the most exciting ways to get to know a place.

We're all about eating what and where the locals eat. You won't find food that's been created merely to be social media worthy on here- no rainbow bagels, gold leaf soft serves- just genuine, authentic food that tastes incredible.

From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best and most authentic food we find on our travels.
