Greece: Mykonos, Catari

Location:

Aghia Anna | Old Port, Mykonos Town 84600, Greece

www.catari.gr

What a delightful and delicious find! After our sunset meal, and some window shopping and exploring of the island, we searched for dinner. Coming upon Catari and it's adorable outdoor seating and pretty lights made it an easy choice for a pizza dinner. Enough of gyros and fries, I say. As everything else in Greece, it was pricey, but the service, atmosphere and chilli flakes from home-grown chillis on a delicious pizza pie made for a wonderful evening.

One of the best things to do no matter where you are, is a picnic outdoors whilst watching the sun go down.

Greece: Mykonos, Petinos

Location:

Platys Gialos Beach, 84600, PO Box 116, Mykonos, Greece

You have to do dinner and a dance show in Greece. We went to one in Petinos at the Blue Myth restaurant. There was singing, high-kicks, fire tricks and table lifting (with teeth!). They even pulled me onto the dance floor several times, once while I was still in my chair!

The food was good too, but it was mostly about the entertainment. Oh, and a good greek dance isn't complete without some plate breaking! OPA!

Greece: Greek Wine

What is it about wine that we love so, most especially on vacation? I don't recall having too much Greek wine before this trip and was excited to try a few. Afterall, Greece has been producing wine since ancient times, having first been prescribed for health and as disinfectants for wounds.

While this particular bottle, with its sedimentary sludge at the bottom, wasn't very tasty, it was absolutely savoured while watching the sunset in Mykonos.

Do you have a favourite Greek wine you can recommend?

Greece: Athens, Breakfast: Makriyianni 3

Location:

Makriyianni 3, Athens

Nile Guide

It's time for breakfast + the Acropolis! 

Who knew we'd have a view of the Acropolis from our breakfast nook situated on Makriyianni street?

Splendid. As was the sandwich and croissant. Greek coffee is going to take me some time getting used to though.

Great little cafe/deli, with a fantastic vantage point of the Acropolis. I'm happy to see the Nile Guide agrees!
